Fort Buchanan Microgrid

This is a Design-Bid-Build Construction project to provide an installation-level microgrid at Fort Buchanan consisting of approximately 8 MW of new diesel generators and 4 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS), as an option. In addition, the project will install a microgrid control system including, but not limited to, paralleling switchgear, transformers, transfer switches, circuit breakers, protective relaying and fiber optic communication connections. The project will install twelve 12,000-gallon above-ground, ballistic-resistant, diesel fuel tanks with a fuel polishing system to sustain critical operations continuously for 14 days. The microgrid will include integration of existing large-scale onsite generation (4.65 MW from solar photovoltaic (PV) array and two 275 kW wind turbines
