Event Description

POWERGRID International and Fire Apparatus & Emergency Equipment come together for a webcast to discuss how sustainability and resiliency can go together for fire stations and other municipal buildings when they are powered by local sustainable power plants, fueled by solar PV and battery storage.

Join us as we discuss one microgrid project at a California Fire Station with a project developer, a Fire Chief, and a city sustainability manager. Learn how municipalities can save money and go green with clean energy. Attendees will be able to use this use case at a fire station and apply lessons learned here to structures across their towns and cities. Attendees will also learn about why the fire department decided to deploy this system at the station, the challenges involved with installing it on an existing station, what the system will power during a power failure and for how long, and more.

This event will be moderated by Jennifer Runyon, Senior Content Director, POWERGRID International and Chris McLoone, Editor in Chief, Fire Apparatus and Emergency Equipment.
