250,000 AEP Ohio customers did not need to lose their power due to forced outages on June 14 -16th. There is an alternative, one that can quickly and efficiently shed load with minimal to no impact on customers: Armada Power.

We take control of approximately 17% of residential load with our patented water heater control technology. We are able to shed and manage that load around grid constraints, shortening or completely eliminating the need for rolling blackouts. All while maintaining customer comfort so that end users won’t be able to detect that an event has occurred.

Standard Solar and Anne Arundel County Department of Public Works in Maryland have begun work to develop a solar project providing clean energy to Bureau of Utility Operations facilities. The systems will be located in Millersville and consist of a combination of four carports and seven rooftop solar arrays, totaling 1.3 megawatts (MW).

The 12MW/48MWh project consists of three independent systems located at one site – an AC-coupled Battery Energy Storage System and two DC-coupled Battery Energy Storage Systems retrofitted to an existing solar PV facility – the first project of its kind in Virginia.

Two of Asheville’s affordable housing organizations partnered with Pisgah Energy and Eagle Solar & Light to power four apartment buildings with renewable energy. The new solar electric systems will generate 243,372kWh of renewable energy, offsetting over 172 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year. The CO2 offset is equivalent to the annual energy usage of 22 homes or driving a 2021 Tesla Model 3 coast-to-coast over 390 times. The energization of these systems was celebrated on Monday July 18th.
