Summary
Crowley, the longest-serving US logistics provider in Puerto Rico, is to develop a microgrid at its Isla Grande terminal in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This marks a new chapter in LNG’s application beyond ship propulsion and bulk power generation. The project, which will integrate a 2.75 MW solar array, 4 MW of battery storage and 2.75 MW of natural gas generation, is designed to enhance the terminal’s resilience and reduce emissions, during both normal and emergency operations.
In Southeast Asia, there are signs that the model is also being applied to more technologically demanding environments. ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC) has announced plans for a microgrid-supporting facility in Bangkok, Thailand. The system will draw on regasified LNG for district cooling, converting the cold energy released during the regasification process into a cooling medium for servers.
