Raytheon Demonstrates Advanced Microgrid System And Control Capabilities

By WoR Network Editor

Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) and its partners, the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Primus Power, and Advanced Energy (NASDAQ: AEIS) have successfully demonstrated an advanced microgrid system capable of islanded (off-grid) operation using stored and high penetration renewable energy.

The testing effort, conducted at NREL's Energy Systems Integration Facility, incorporated Primus Power's EnergyPod(R) 706kVA powertrain, two AE 100kW solar inverters and Raytheon's Intelligent Power and Energy Management (IPEM) Microgrid Controller. The demonstration proved the ability for an Energy Storage System-driven microgrid with conventional photovoltaic (PV) inverters to achieve 100% PV penetration while retaining the power quality needed...read more
