Montgomery County’s first microgrid-enabled bus depot is a very busy place these days. AlphaStruxure has been putting the finishing touches on one of the most innovative, sustainable and resilient transportation infrastructure projects in the Washington, DC region and the first microgrid in the area to charge a public transit bus fleet. Despite day in day out construction to complete the project on schedule, this public transit depot has been fully operational without interruption to service.

It was amidst this flurry of activity that we joined with Montgomery County officials to give the Washington Post and NBC Washington early access to this benchmark project. The AlphaStruxure team has been working hard on this project since we broke ground in September of 2021 and were very excited to give local reporters a tour.

Deploying microgrids is a key resilience objective for the DoD. Existing EUL and PPA procurement authorities for microgrids can be combined into an Energy as a Service procurement model. The EaaS model draws from the EUL’s authority to execute land leases for the siting of energy infrastructure (microgrids) on DoD installations. It also draws from the PPA’s authority that enables a energy developer to contract with a DoD agency by selling energy in exchange for its services in financing, designing, building, owning, operating, and maintaining energy infrastructure.
