We just celebrated the official launch of our Narara Ecovillage community battery and microgrid, and Toby Roxburgh came up from Canberra to launch the system, which he helped design.
Toby is the founder and executive director of Carbon Neutral Delivery Partners, and he joined Adam to talk about the differences between smartgrids and microgrids, and the benefits of batteries for local energy storage.
Here are some links related to the episode:
- NEV Power, our village-owned energy provider
- NEV Smartgrid: a page about the function and efficiencies of our microgrid.
- Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA), for information about government support for emissions reduction technologies.
