IEEE PI2 Austin, January 28, 2024, Tech Meeting In-Person 6 PM Central / 7 PM Eastern at Balcones Country Club: 8600 Balcones Dr. Austin, TX 78750 Abstract: The growth of electrification and of data centers has accelerated the demand for electric power reliability. For decades military bases have been 10 MW to 50 MW power systems whose continuous reliable operation is critical to US security. This has provided valuable experience at levels of power of today's microgrids. This talk highlights the challenges faced by the Department of Defense in ensuring power for critical infrastructure on military installations and its impact on mission accomplishment and national defense.
