Descripción del Proyecto
Lancaster Advanced Energy (AEC) Project In 2011, the City of Lancaster set a goal to become the first Zero Net Energy (ZNE) City in America – generating or procuring from 100% renewable sources as much energy as the City consumes. In 2016, the City partnered with the ZNE Alliance to accelerate progress to its 100% renewable goal, and to advance other ambitious climate and sustainability targets. The City will achieve its 100% renewable goal in 2019. The Alliance is currently working with the City to develop and deploy: A Virtual Power Plant that integrates a total of 5 MW of solar and 10 MWH of storage, lowers procurement costs for Lancaster Choice Energy (the local Community Choice Energy provider) Five community microgrids Flexible building and EV loads Two affordable new ZNE housing subdivisions, including Innovative microgrids to provide renewable backup power A testbed for evaluating the performance and economics of kinetic flywheel vs. lithium ion energy storage technologies Three Community Resiliency Centers that provide emergency shelter and safeguard essential services, powered by renewable microgrids Three megawatt hours of energy storage at commercial sites in an innovative partnership with Lancaster Choice Energy and Engie Innovative energy data management and rate design Project Partners: Key project partners include: the City of Lancaster and Lancaster Choice Energy (Community Choice Energy provider), Energy Solutions (ZNE residential microgrids), Olivine (Virtual Power Plant), NHA Advisors (municipal finance), Gridscape (Microgrid design), Terra Verde Energy (solar and storage deployment), and Blue Strike Environmental (rate design and energy data management).
