- e2Companies will install its patented R3Di ® System to provide uninterruptible, conditioned power for the building.
- In addition, the R3Di ® System will incorporate a new rooftop solar array, making it a turnkey microgrid, further enabling flexibility for the utility during times of emergency grid conditions.
- Erie County Public Works Commissioner William Geary said the Microgrid and Resiliency Solutions Project is an innovative partnership that sets a foundation for the county to continue being good stewards to the community during this global energy transition.
