This news probably isn’t exciting to you, but we believe it should be: A microgrids industry is about to emerge, and it’s not just hospitals and military facilities.
Big players like Schneider Electric are preparing to roll out a microgrid service offering applicable to buildings with an electrical load under 5 MW – this represents 90% of buildings in the Western world.
A microgrid might be coming to your neighbourhood.
Managing local energy is entering the mainstream. This is exciting!
At Seita, we believe it will happen in cooperation with the grid. It will create win-win results.
What makes this an interesting challenge is that saving on energy costs, reducing CO2 footprint or increasing reliability is seldom the first goal. We all use energy for real objectives, businesses and households alike. So, while managing energy can be crucial for the bottom line, it comes second in daily operations.
Multi-objective dynamic optimization problems with a sustainability twist and world-wide application – this is why we get up in the morning!
