Final Report
This section of Microgrids.io presents a Final Report of findings from a multi-year research project – focused on procuring and financing local government microgrids – undertaken by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities with financial support from the United States Department of Energy. The Report complements and extends the information presented in the Fact Sheets + Webinars section of Microgrids.io.
Over the course of the project, a series of stakeholder meetings were convened to obtain feedback on ongoing research efforts. Meetings were held Oct. 16, 2019, Jan. 16, 2020, Oct. 14, 2020, and July 9, 2021. Copies of the agendas for each of the meetings can be accessed here.
Over the course of the project, an online Survey was developed and administered to learn details about local government projects generally and procurement and financing specifically. Results are discussed in the Final Report. A copy of the Survey questions can be found here.
