Background

N/A

Requirements

  • Design-Bid-Build Construction project.  The microgrid project consists of constructing a microgrid system that includes a propane generator power plant, a battery energy storage system (BESS), and integration of a carport-mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) array.
  • This exciting new project brings a major boost to energy resilience and sustainability. It will introduce a 600-kW solar photovoltaic (PV) system mounted on newly built carports in the heart of the cantonment area, transforming an existing parking lot into a hub of clean energy. These solar carports will be equipped with lighting for nighttime visibility and will be ready for future electric vehicle (EV) charging stations.
  • To support reliable power, the project also includes 670-kW of propane generators and a battery energy storage system (BESS) with 500-kW/2000-kWh capacity. These systems will work together as part of a microgrid, helping ensure consistent energy supply even during outages.
  • Infrastructure upgrades will include new electrical lines, fiber connections, and an extended security fence around the microgrid equipment. The solar and battery systems will feature advanced components like inverters, transformers, and communication controls, all designed for efficiency and safety.
  • As part of the modernization effort, the Reverse Osmosis (RO) system will also receive upgraded control panels with reduced voltage soft starters, improving performance and reliability.
