Summary

Like most other cities, towns, and municipalities in California, the City of Santa Monica provides many required amenities to its citizens and businesses. At the City Yard, the Public Works Department provides a diverse set of essential services to the community. By integrating site-based renewable energy sources with emergency power capability, energy storage, and sophisticated load management technologies though a microgrid-based design, this project will provide robust resiliency features and disaster preparedness for these critical municipal services. In addition, the benefits and capabilities of the microgrid are shared with local businesses and residential participants
