Last week, Scale's Tim Hade participated in a ribbon-cutting event for the Goleta Water District's new battery microgrid, which will boost resilience while cutting costs and emissions for this essential service. It's a win-win-win for the Goleta community - and a great example of how DER providers like Scale and the public sector are working together to solve local problems. https://lnkd.in/eJ7iag7Q

Next Tuesday, Scale's Clayton Yeko will present a case study on one of our most innovative projects: a microgrid powering Amond World's fully off-grid cold storage facility for almond farmers in California's Central Valley. Read on to learn more and sign up, and thanks to Renewable Thermal Collaborative for hosting!
Make plans to join us on November 19 from 11 am-12 pm ET for the RTC Webinar: Three Case Studies in Sustainable Heating and Cooling featuring our newest case studies: Solar Thermal at the Indianapolis International Airport, Solar Thermal at Boortmalt Malting Plant, and Microgrid at Amond World Cold Storage Facility. Featured speakers include: - Don Frank, Founder and Owner of RTC Solutions Provider Solar UV Solutions. Don will share how evacuated tube #solarthermal collectors and hot water #storage are serving the Indianapolis International Airport’s essential facilities. - Elise Heath, Investment Manager & Business Developer with RTC Solutions Provider Kyotherm. Elise will discuss how Energy-as-a-Service (#EaaS) financing enabled Boortmalt to install a flat plate solar thermal and hot water storage solution at a malting plant in France. - Clayton Yeko, Senior Business Development Manager with RTC Solutions Provider Scale Microgrids. Clayton will describe how the company designed and built an off-grid #microgrid at a new refrigerated cold storage facility operated by Amond World in Madera, California. Register for the webinar to learn about the projects, lessons learned, and next steps from practitioners and thermal decarbonization experts: https://lnkd.in/e5HfwtCK #casestudy #renewableenergy #climatesolutions #industrialdecarbonization #aviation #solutionsproviders #coldstorage #sustainability #heating #cooling

Some weekend wall-running-through inspiration, courtesy of our co-founder Tim Hade - even (or especially) when the mission seems daunting, never forget what we can achieve together, as an industry and as a country. 💪
We just published Tim Hade's DERVOS kickoff on our website (full video) and podcast (audio only). But if you don't have the time for that today, at least watch how he ended it. We are capable of doing amazing things.

Heads up for businesses in NJ, PA, MD, and other mid-Atlantic states - double-digit rate hikes are coming after a "mind-boggling," unprecedented 10x price shock in PJM's capacity market. Here's what's happening, why it's a sign of things to come, and how microgrids can help you weather the storm: https://lnkd.in/eTDSNVyC

Check out this Renewable Thermal Collaborative case study on our groundbreaking project for Amond World, a state-of-the-art, fully off-grid cold storage facility for the Central Valley's almond farmers! It's a great example of how microgrids enable companies to "BYOP" (Bring Your Own Power) in the face of years-long waits for grid connections or capacity upgrades - while simultaneously reducing costs and emissions.
We are pleased to announce the publication of our newest case study on the partnership between RTC Solutions Provider Scale Microgrids, a vertically-integrated distributed energy company, and Origo Cold Storage to build a microgrid at Amond World, a new 500,000 square foot refrigerated cold storage facility in the Madera Airport Industrial Park in California’s Central Valley. Scale Microgrids used a “microgrid-as-a-service” financing model to design, build, own, operate, and maintain the off-grid microgrid that provides the facility with electricity for refrigeration of almonds and other crops from local farmers. The microgrid includes a 1,200 kilowatt (kW) solar photovoltaic (PV) array, a 1,200 kW battery storage unit, and two 1,200 kW natural gas-powered dispatchable generators. Download the case study to find out more about how the project started, what it took to bring it to fruition, key outcomes, and lessons learned: https://lnkd.in/dkQbR979 #microgrid #renewablethermalenergy #distributedenergy #coldstorage #foodindustry #agricultureindustry #thoughtleadership #casestudy

PG&E has warned that it may call what could be the largest wildfire-prevention public safety power shutoff (PSPS) event ever over the next three days, with PSPSes "likely" for vast swathes of its territory due to dry conditions and high winds. Check their map to see if your area could be affected - and reach out if you want to discuss how Scale can help protect your organization against future outages. https://lnkd.in/efqNfTi3

Here's another impactful way to ensure DERs help provide resilience when and where it's most needed. Take 5 minutes for the link below, and thanks Arushi Sharma Frank for getting the word out about this!
PSA: Please spend 5 minutes to help me, and my community friends and family in New Orleans, ensure pain and suffering from climate events is minimized and loss of life from a lack of resilient shelters in the city is stamped out in its entirety. Thank you. Comment here: https://lnkd.in/ewhx3mDb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Solar-Battery VPP and Microgrids for New Orleans: I have a new friend. Her name is Sweta Chakraborty, PhD. She keeps reminding me we don't have time, and I keep saying this same thing everywhere I go when I talk about distributed energy : clean power production and storage, next to power users. Lots of it, as fast as possible. Every hurricane, every wildfire is an in-your-face reminder that we can fix the transmission grid all day (well, for decades), but people need survival tools now. Today, I did my first post on the We Don't Have Time climate advocacy platform to talk about #NewOrleans #VPP #Microgrid opportunities that the city can approve to kick-start more #DERs for #stormsurvival asap. https://lnkd.in/eVM5QVCB I want to thank the residents of New Orleans, Louisiana, many of whom I spoke to in addition to the community orgs I worked with to draft this proposal for City Council review at a climate hearing tomorrow. Here it is: https://lnkd.in/eR_AGbW2 And, I want to ask you in your personal, professional, social club, intellectual hub, nonprofit, academic, or any other capacity, to submit a 3-sentence comment TODAY (deadline is 10 am CT tomorrow).

After the shocking scenes of Hurricane Helene's destruction, reading about the challenges of restoring electricity to some affected areas is an incredibly sobering reminder of how important energy is to our lives - and how fragile the grid can be in the face of climate change. We're obviously big believers in the importance of clean energy-powered resilience as part of the solution, and we're big fans of The Footprint Project's rapid response approach to helping communities #BuildBackGreener with mobile solar and battery systems. Check out their homepage to learn about how they've provided emergency clean power access to over 50,000 people to date, and how they're helping on the ground right now in North Carolina: https://lnkd.in/dJBH8RF
