Throughout the microgrid mission to restore temporary power to hardest hit towns, the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority has been a great partner. “They’re 110 percent behind this initiative,” said USACE Task Force Power Restoration Operations Officer Aaron Anderson. “It’s their system, so we have the ability to put the microgrid in place and install the transformers, and when we go from our system into their main grid or substation, PREPA performs those connections. So they are fully on board.”
