Direct answer
What is a Mycrogrid® Installation?
A microgrid installation is a coordinated solar, battery, electrical, controls, and monitoring project designed to help a property produce, store, and manage more of its own energy while keeping the utility available as backup.
Service overview
One design for the complete energy system.
A microgrid project starts with the property rather than a predetermined equipment package. We review energy use, backup priorities, solar opportunity, electrical infrastructure, equipment locations, permitting requirements, and future loads before finalizing the system architecture.
Solar production, battery capacity, transfer equipment, controls, and Mycroguard™ visibility are planned together. That coordination reduces compatibility surprises and gives the owner one clear operating plan for normal use, outages, and future expansion.
What this service can include
- Property and load review
- Solar and storage design
- Electrical integration
- Permitting and installation
- Commissioning and Mycroguard™ setup
Final equipment and scope are confirmed after property, compatibility, and code review.
Integrated system outcomes
Produce. Store. Control.
-
One coordinated design
Generation, storage, electrical equipment, and controls are engineered as one property system.
-
Defined backup priorities
Essential and whole-property loads are evaluated before battery capacity and operating modes are selected.
-
More local energy control
The system is designed to use more energy where it is produced instead of depending entirely on export credits.
-
Commissioned and monitored
Operating modes are tested at handoff and Mycroguard™ visibility is configured around the installed equipment.
Design inputs
What we evaluate before equipment is selected.
- Historical energy use and expected future loads
- Essential-load and whole-property backup goals
- Roof, ground, shading, and solar-production conditions
- Main service, panel capacity, and electrical integration
- Battery, inverter, controller, and disconnect locations
- EV charging, electrification, and future expansion plans
Project path
From property and load discovery to commissioning and owner handoff.
-
Property and load discovery
We document the electrical service, energy use, site conditions, equipment space, outage priorities, and ownership goals.
-
Integrated system design
Solar, storage, transfer equipment, controls, monitoring, code requirements, and equipment clearances are developed as one scope.
-
Permitting and installation
The approved design moves through permitting, procurement, coordinated installation, and electrical integration.
-
Commissioning and owner handoff
We test operating modes, confirm backup behavior, configure system access, and explain how the property should operate.
Questions homeowners ask
Answers about Microgrid Installations.
What is included in a home microgrid installation?
The final scope can include solar generation, battery storage, inverters, transfer or control equipment, electrical upgrades, permitting, installation, commissioning, and Mycroguard™ setup. The exact equipment depends on the property review and approved design.
Does a Mycrogrid® disconnect the home from the utility?
Not necessarily. Most projects keep the utility connection available while designing the property to produce, store, and control more energy locally. The utility can remain an important backup source.
How is battery capacity selected for a microgrid?
Capacity is based on the loads the owner wants to support, expected operating duration, solar production, equipment limits, available space, and the desired balance between backup and everyday energy use.
Can an existing solar system become part of a microgrid?
Sometimes. We first review the installed inverter, interconnection, electrical configuration, warranties, monitoring access, and code requirements. Compatible equipment may be incorporated; other systems may require modification or a separate design path.
Which equipment brands can be used?
Equipment is selected after design and compatibility review. Mycrogrid® works with established manufacturers including Qcells, FranklinWH, and Lunar Energy when their products fit the property and approved system architecture.
