NH Event: All About Microgrids

ASHREA Presents – All About Microgrids
December 19, 5-9pm, Common Man, Concord

We are at the front end of a major evolutionary change in how energy systems interact. Instead of individual systems—buildings, utilities, the transportation sector, and the industry sector—it’s becoming one system, and buildings are going to play a central role in that new paradigm. Buildings will be where energy is generated, stored, and commandeered, and we will be optimizing energy flow in a different way.

In keeping with this year’s “become aware, get engaged, and start now” effort, ASHRAE will be hosting this month’s program event on Microgrids. This presentation will focus on what microgrids are, and examples of how this emerging technology can enable a more energy independent, secure, and resilient strategy for how we power our buildings, homes, and communities.

When: Wednesday, December 19, 5pm-9pm
Where: Common Man Restaurant, 25 Water Street, Concord, NH
Schedule:
