Microgrids are on the rise. Need resilient, sustainable, and rapidly deployed local power that doesn't require new transmission lines? Here's a great primer by POWER magazine's Darrell Proctor on the technology, players, and state of the market. It also mentions our partnership with Schneider Electric, delivering a new class of hybrid tech microgrids based on #lineargenerators. #cleanpower #energy #microgrids #lowemissions #zerocarbonfuture https://lnkd.in/gf-5_5-u

Can’t say it better than Craig Gordon…
Kudos to the leadership of MACRUC for offering a thoughtful agenda this week. Upon reflection, there are several observations that can help inform a new solution to the energy dilemma facing the region and country. - Our economic growth engine hinges on data. We need data for everything we do from advances in manufacturing to improvements in the service industry. And we can’t cut growth. - It's much harder and more expensive to connect new loads, especially as load is coming in faster and in bigger chunks than ever before. - The energy supply stack continues its continental drift towards intermittency despite the valiant reinforcements of battery storage. - Interregional transmission continues to be elusive. - There’s renewed interest in massive new gas plants to balance the grid, but that raises the question of how much pipeline capacity there is to deliver it, nevermind getting it when you need it. - Regulators are very concerned about new types of stranded costs, inequitable rates, and just keeping the lights on. The observations above yield a new solution just by rethinking our approach. Mainspring Energy's advanced technology provides a fast, affordable, equitable, and clean way to keep the pedal on growth, maintain reliability, and create optionality. With data centers in mind, our tech is uniquely suited to create a local clean capacity solution using: (1) non-firm gas, (2) non-firm electric, (3) dynamic fuel-switching, and (4) multi-day on-site fuel storage (hydrogen, ammonia, biogas, etc.). Only Mainspring has a dispatchable and highly-efficient technology that can run on 100% gas, 100% hydrogen, and 100% ammonia in the same generator, interchangeably. That’s robust flexibility and optionality. Mainspring’s tech provides an ideal solution for utilities, data centers, and regulators: The solution defers the need for major infrastructure investments, accelerates interconnection of data center load (while reducing capacity requirements), and keeps utility rates in check. This is yet another example where the old adage hits home: think globally, act locally! A big thanks to John Igo for his contribution to this conversation at MACRUC and to all the folks who made it possible! You know who you are. Let us know if you'd like to learn more.

If you could reduce NOx emissions of diesel trucking by 96.7%, would you do it? Prologis and A.P. Moller - Maersk did, with a new EV charging depot near the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach that can charge up to 96 heavy-duty electric trucks at the same time, replacing diesel trucks on the job. It's powered by Mainspring Linear Generators. We're charging into the clean energy future. Great writeup and interview by CleanTechnica on this visionary energy project. #lineargenerators #pathtozerocarbon #cleanair #EVtrucks #EVcharging https://lnkd.in/d58JMRVE

Great read from the Los Angeles Business Journal on how visionary ports are going green. We're happy to be mentioned as the fuel-flex generation technology powering the revolutionary EV truck charging microgrid deployed by our customer Prologis and their partner A.P. Moller - Maersk Performance Team. Thanks for the shout-out Brian Sheridan! #zerocarbonfuture #EVcharging #EVtrucks #microgrids #lineargenerators
I leverage the collective power of organizations coming together to achieve social good
Good article from Los Angeles Business Journal on the business opportunities and challenges that come with lowering emissions. (Yah, I still pay attention to what's going on in the clean air space). Lot's of great quotes in this article from old friends during my time at the Coalition for Clean Air. Shout out to the companies doing good work mentioned in the article including US Hybrid World Energy, LLC 4 GEN LOGISTICS LLC Electrify America Forum Mobility WattEV, Inc. Amazon Mainspring Energy Volvo Group A.P. Moller - Maersk. Not specifically mentioned, but thought I'd take a second to recognize some of the folks who are making big things happen at sustainability with these companies.

Why advocate for protecting DEBA? Ensuring a clean, reliable, and resilient grid is critical to sustain California as one of the world's largest economies. In the face of unpredictable climate challenges, the Distributed Electricity Backup Assets (DEBA) program represents an essential opportunity for California's critical loads to cost-effectively deploy new technologies, like Mainspring Linear Generators, that are significantly cleaner and more flexible than the legacy backup generators that have proliferated over the last several decades. DEBA is a key program to help protect critical loads and usher in a new era of clean backup generators. #zerocarbonfuture #cleanenergy #resilientpower #lineargenerators #smartenergypolicy https://lnkd.in/gY2SS3Aq
