Page 17: Section 4: Powering The Nanogrid Without Utility Power
Section 4: Powering the Nanogrid Without Utility Power Section 4: Powering the Nanogrid Without Utili- ty Power Islanding In the event of a grid outage, the Energy Island enters Islanding Mode: the Islanding Inverter disconnects from the utility grid and powers the building from the REbus Nanogrid. In a typical solar-plus-storage configuration, this means that all REbus-connected smart batteries (including Harbor) will work together with the PV Links to supply power to REbus. -
