Mission-critical: Challenges in building

Microgrids ensure energy security for mission-critical loads at military bases, and reduce reliance on fuel during grid outages. While they have much in common with many of the technologies used in ''other'' microgrids, the stringent technical requirements involved add a new layer of complexity, explain Lisa Laughner and Tony Soverns from provider Go Electric.

Advanced military energy storage equipment has become an indispensable part of modern high-tech wars. At present, various forms of energy storage technology are rapidly innovated and are widely used in many military fields. At the same time, they continue to lead the upgrade of military equipment and even change the battlefield pattern.
