Insights from a Microgrid Feasibility Study: Transferrable Benefits from the Feasibility Study of Derwent Bridge Microgrid

Join us in the exciting and informative webinar about the transformational potential of microgrids, developed through the comprehensive feasibility study of the Derwent Bridge Microgrid Project. Led by a team of UTS experts and industry partners, this is going to major in some of the critical steps and methodologies in the evaluation, development, and implementation of a microgrid. Understand how a project in an isolated town in Tasmania managed community engagement, curated data, designed, forecasted, modeled in the digital twin, and executed predictive analysis in developing a resilient and sustainable energy solution. 

Learning Outcomes: 

Feasibility Study Framework: Learn a step-by-step procedure for conducting the most appropriate and detailed microgrid feasibility study, from identification of location to cost-benefit analysis. 

Community Engagement Strategies and Business: Discover effective methods for engaging local communities in renewable energy projects and develop sustainable business models for microgrids. 

Design and Optimization: Understand the process of microgrid design, planning, and optimization of grid-connected, partly islanded, islanded, hydrogen-based, and nonhydrogen-based microgrids. 

Digital Twin, forecasting, and Predictive Analysis: Get introduced to the approach that uses the concept of digital twin, forecasting, and predictive analysis for optimizing microgrid design and operation. 

Case Study Insights: Derwent Bridge project: insights into practical aspects, such as the problems and challenges, how they were mitigated or solved, and impacts. 

Advanced Technologies and Tools: Get introduced to the New Integrated Platform new to UTS—advanced with Forecasting Tools, Microgrid Design Tools, and Cost-Benefit Analysis Tools.
