Over the next few years, Naperville’s energy grid will see strides in efficiency and resiliency thanks to a $1.1 million federal grant announced this week. The funding is expected to boost the capacity of Naperville’s power delivery system by more effectively using energy generated — and stored — within the city.
Smaller, distributed energy resources can be managed separately, or they can be pulled together in a microgrid. The latter is what Naperville is looking to do. Through its GRIP grant, the city will implement what’s called a “distributed energy resource management system.” Essentially, it’s a software program that will help the city manage distributed resources together rather than individually — a more efficient process.
