Grid-Adaptive Microgrids: The Future of Energy Decarbonization and Resiliency (1.5 LU|ZNCD)
As the building industry shifts focus from the metric of energy to the metric of greenhouse gas emissions, the relationship between buildings and their energy utilities is changing. This session will look at pathways for building decarbonization and the potential for grid-interactive buildings to lower emissions quickly and enable a faster transition to a decarbonized grid and localized energy resiliency in the future. Through case studies of successful microgrids, these projects demonstrate how we can meet climate goals, ensure resiliency, and advance the industry as a whole.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn why net zero energy doesn’t equate to zero operating emissions.
- Understand the potential for grid-interactive buildings to move the industry beyond net zero energy.
- Learn how microgrids can facilitate energy decarbonization in both buildings and grids.
- Understand how microgrids can create energy resiliency and financial benefits for projects.
