Another win for ARDA Power: WorleyParsons Awarded Microgrid Project by the University of Toronto

This project will see an entirely Direct Current (DC) microgrid system installed at the University of Toronto in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The microgrid will provide the university with power resiliency, will reduce electricity costs, and will enable new cutting-edge research at the University.

When reviewing the available technologies that could potentially meet the University’s requirements for the project, WorleyParsons’ Smart & Distributed Energy team identified ARDA Power as the clear leader in the field for Direct Current microgrid systems of this size and functionality.

The microgrid will couple energy supplied by the grid and rooftop solar power with a lithium-ion battery and DC loads. The University of Toronto laboratory will use the microgrid system to develop and test new energy management software for various approaches to Electric Vehicle (EV) charging.
