Achieving a resilient and sustainable energy future in Alaska
A rugged Alaskan town utilizes battery power for a more resilient grid and a step closer to energy independence. See how Cordova Electric Cooperative is realizing their ambitious vision of rebuilding its energy system to be more resilient and sustainable.
Li-Ion batteries for microgrid frequency stabilization
Flexible energy storage of hydroelectric production and more renewables
Reduced dependence on diesel sourced power
Challenge
Accelerate the move to sustainable energy to support state’s largest fishing fleet, and protect the local ecosystem after a major oil spill.
Solution
Developed a microgrid to harness available hydropower sources year-round, despite seasonal variability, using a microgrid and battery energy storage system (BESS).
Impact
Maximized renewable energy production, significantly reducing dependence on diesel by 40-50k gallons per year.
