DALLAS, Dec. 16 -- Lockheed Martin will demonstrate its Intelligent Microgrid system for electrical power distribution at Fort Bliss, Texas. 

The demonstration at an Army Brigade Combat Team complex is part of a project by the U.S. Department of Defense's Environmental Security Technology Certification Program.

"Government installations must meet challenging new energy reduction and renewable energy mandates, as well as address critical energy security objectives," said Gil Metzger, director of Intelligent Microgrid Solutions at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control. "Our Intelligent Microgrid Solutions provide the efficiency, reliability and security necessary to satisfy such demanding requirements for our customers."

An Intelligent Microgrid manages the distribution of electrical power generated by various sources, continuously balancing loads and supplies while ensuring that all elements of the grid perform at peak efficiency, whether they're connected to a larger grid or operating in an isolated mode.  More >>>
