SgurrEnergy's microgrid advisory and engineering supports the design and delivery of microgrids — localised systems that generate, store and manage their own power — guiding clients through the key decisions and defining the scope of work needed to build a reliable, well-integrated microgrid.
Key Decisions SgurrEnergy Supports
Reliability and resilience
Commercial and emissions value
Load profile
Why: Microgrid design starts with load shape, critical loads, growth and reliability requirements. How: Load assessment, demand profile review and critical load classification.
Technology mix
Controls and islanding
Microgrid Scope
Load and reliability
Load shape, critical loads, redundancy, outage duration and growth.
Generation and storage
Wind, solar, BESS, diesel/gensets, grid imports and backup systems.
Controls
EMS, SCADA, protection, grid-forming operation and islanding logic.
Economics
Fuel savings, LCOE, emissions, reliability value and lifecycle costs.
Operations
O&M, performance monitoring, availability, safety and expansion planning.
