Building a Microgrid Using Natural Gas Generators
What is a Microgrid? A microgrid is a self-sufficient energy system that manages distributed energy resources (DERs) and the interconnected electrical loads within a defined electrical boundary of a
Our solutions fully integrate all components of a microgrid, including battery energy storage systems (BESS), diesel and natural gas generator sets, hydrogen technologies, renewable energy sources, system level controls and transfer switches. What is a microgrid?
The term “microgrid” refers to the concept of a small number of DERs connected to a single power subsystem. DERs include both renewable and /or conventional resources . The electric grid is no longer a one-way system from the 20th-century . A constellation of distributed energy technologies is paving the way for MGs, , .

Gas and diesel generator sets for microgrids Our range of diesel and natural gas generators are suited for all microgrid power generation requirements, ranging from 15 - 3,750 kVA.
As of October 2023, 40% of all utility-scale electricity generation was from natural gas, representing about four times the amount of power generated by wind and 12 times the amount generated by
Juan Matson Senior Sales Manager – Gas Power Systems pended on centralized power plants owned an operated by utilities. However, the traditional model is changing. Intelligent distributed generation
As the demand for reliable, scalable, and sustainable power continues to grow, more facilities are exploring the integration of natural gas microgrids and on-site power plants into their
Abstract. In the coming years, decentralized power generation systems with renewables are expected to take a leading role, and micro gas turbines will serve as backup sources to
An optimized mix of Gas Turbines, Steam Turbines, and absorption chillers will combine cooling, heat, and power to offer higher efficiency, reliability to the cooling system, and low cost of
Meanwhile, the controller allows BESS to absorb power from the gas turbine generation system during the off-peak hours and stores it for later use (during the peak load demand).
A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. It can connect and disconnect from the grid to
In a microgrid that interconnects various power generation systems utilising different technologies and power capacities, it is essential to adopt a hierarchical control framework aimed at
