| Abstract | Climate change, safety concerns, obsolescence of utility structures and equipment, and the goal of incorporating a higher level of renewable generation are now placing the traditional power grid and the assumption of easy access to it at risk. Envision the development of a new generation of small, autonomous networks of storage (batteries), solar panels, and even small turbines or engines to provide an alternative power source to small communities – as small as a single building or group of buil |
