View how Mayfield Renewables, using Xendee’s DESIGN microgrid modeling software, provided feasibility studies and preliminary engineering to support the grant application process for a $26M resilience project for Tanana Chiefs Conference in Alaska.
Xendee recently participated in 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 will detail the feasibility study process, demonstrate the importance of simplifying complexity and show the impact of locally produced clean energy for the Tanana Chiefs Conference.
If you missed our discussion with @Tanana Chiefs Conference (TCC) and @Mayfield Renewables last week, it was a fascinating view into the challenges TCC faces in bringing cost-effective energy to eight remote villages in Alaska, and how they’re using microgrids as a strategy to reduce costs and improve reliability.
Xendee has been excited to support Mayfield Renewables with our software tools as they have run feasibility studies for these projects and others like them. This video gives a quick glimpse into how they’re using Xendee to simplify the techno-economic analysis with these complex projects, increase efficiency, and grow their business.
