Description

Waterbear small microgrids suit both new and existing properties who need to generate their own electricity or moderate their usage from utility grids. The advantage of a 3-9 megawatt grid is the ability to develop land that does not have a reliable power source or is in an expensive electricity market. Not only do microgrids help properties become self sufficient and increase budget performance, they also help property managers increase the reliability of their project's energy.

In most cases a microgrid of some form will save a property owner and developer a significant cost because at a minimum batteries are used to store power at non-peak rates. Through a colocation model, Waterbear helps properties forget about the management and maintenance and provides power in a model similar to a utility - all while delivering the benefits of personal power generation.

For argicultural projects, a carbon capture component can be added to gas turbine generators and redirected to increase plant productivity. This also helpful for new regulatory regimes that have specific CO2 requirements and require turbines when a large thermal load (air conditioners) is present.
