Building a clean energy future

CDM Smith leads the charge through fleet system conversion, renewable energy systems and utility infrastructure planning.

Why should a water utility install a microgrid?

Utilities are turning to microgrids as a solution to improve both reliability and sustainability. These small and localized energy systems can provide critical backup power during outages, seamlessly integrate renewable energy sources, and even allow utilities to operate independently from the main grid when it's needed. How are microgrids being used in real-world applications, especially in energy-intensive areas like water?
