4 FAQs about Yerevan community microgrids

What is an example of a community microgrid?

For example, a community microgrid in a rural area may have different objectives than a community in an urban setting [12, 20]. The rural community may prioritise energy independence and self-sufficiency, while the urban community may focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions or increasing access to affordable energy .

How can we help communities build and operate microgrids?

Using our technical, regulatory and policy expertise on community energy systems, we can assist these communities to build and operate microgrids. This website provides vital information on microgrid planning, design, and other relevant aspects (business models, policy and regulatory aspects).

What is a community-owned microgrid?

For instance, community-owned microgrids may outsource the planning, construction, and operation of the system . In such cases, even though the community has ownership, the decision-making and control might be distributed across external actors .

Why is a microgrid a problem?

For example, the potential for conflicts between community members, a lack of trust in the microgrid's ability to meet their energy needs, and low participation levels can all hinder the system's potential.
