Dispatches is a new webinar series brought to you by Mayfield Renewables and Outfit. Our first episode featured a resilience project for the Tanana Chiefs Conference (TCC), a tribal consortium in Interior Alaska that received a $26 million grant from the U.S.D.O.E Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations Energy for Rural and Remote Areas (ERA) to bring solar PV and energy storage to eight remote Alaskan villages.
Mayfield Renewables, using Xendee’s DESIGN microgrid modeling software, provided feasibility studies and preliminary engineering to support the grant application process. DESIGN streamlines Distributed Energy Resources (DER) modeling process while creating detailed financial and technical reports.
This groundbreaking project, spearheaded by the TCC, will see PV arrays and battery storage systems integrated into existing microgrids in Nulato, Huslia, Minto, Kaltag, Grayling, Anvik, Shageluk, and Holy Cross. These communities, now 100% reliant on expensive air-lifted diesel fuel, will see a 40% reduction in diesel consumption, leading to lower energy costs and cleaner air.
The Transformative Power of Microgrids details the feasibility study process, demonstrates the importance of simplifying complexity and shows the impact of locally produced clean energy for the Tanana Chiefs Conference.
Guests:
⇨ Eddie Dellamary, Rural Energy Specialist | Tanana Chiefs Conferences
⇨ Michael Stadler, Co-Founder & CTO | Xendee
