DERP Technologies, LLC services

The DERP team approaches the design of public or private microgrids with the LEAP (Local Energy Assurance Planning) protocols that have been established by the federal government (through the Public Technology Institute). It is important to apply these LEAP principals, beginning with identifying the critical facilities that must be powered during an emergency/blackout – and identifying their functions, their energy requirements, various energy management options, and adding energy capacity through clean electrical energy sources of local distributed generation (DG) – power that is generated close to the critical loads and which can be managed locally.This is an adaptation of “Form Follows Function” - each microgrid is designed for the individual application and its unique attributes.
