Microgrid Resilience and Reliability Considerations Seeking the perfect match of resilience and reliability Map: Target Bushfire Affected Townships and Network Zones1 Figure: History of Bushfires in Victoria
The Victorian Government is supporting and developing microgrids. A microgrid can be thought of as a small 'subset' of the electricity grid that provides energy generation and storage to properties at a local level. They can incorporate renewable energy generation from solar panels or wind turbines as well as battery energy storage.
using microgrid solutions1 to address the energy needs for regional Victoria. Current microgrid solutions include a variety of configurations, and individual geographic locations within Victoria have unique technical and operational requirements.
The $10 million microgrid demonstration initiative (MDI) supports the development and implementation of microgrid demonstration projects. These projects address key microgrid sector challenges. They also contribute to the unlocking of the microgrid sector in Victoria. The MDI grant program funding supports statewide microgrid projects.
EnergyAustralia was awarded $889,154 towards a $1,876,955 project to develop a purpose-built microgrid in a mixed-use greenfield urban development located within the suburb of Wollert in Melbourne's north. EnergyAustralia partnered with Villawood Properties to build the demonstration microgrid in the sustainable precinct of Rathdowne.
