The Partnership for Innovation: Building Innovation Capacity (PFI:BIC) project, led by Clarkson University researchers, aims to develop advanced resilient microgrid technology to improve disaster response capability. Advanced resilient microgrid technology provides continuous electric service to support critical services to people displaced during extreme disasters; and provides electric service to support recovery crews working to restore services. In an emergency, the microgrid is an electrical "island", idependent of the main power grid and serves these critical loads through local power generation. This project will focus on the human-machine operational impacts of the microgrid both during normal operations as well as during disaster response. The development of "smart scheduler" technology will enable the microgrid operator and the local disaster response team to maximize the microgrid's performance during the disaster recovery. The microgrid must operate successfully disconnected from the grid for two weeks or more in catastrophic situations where the level of damage is unanticipated and the microgrid itself has experienced reduced capability. Human-machine capability will be developed to respond to rapidly changing community needs with a minimum of human effort.The project will complement ongoing projects to plan and design a resilient underground microgrid in Potsdam, New York. The Potsdam microgrid features a unique partnership of generator owners, local government, regulated utility, and critical load entities. This diverse set of microgrid partners is key to providing the resilience required of the microgrid. At the same time, designing, building, and operating the microgrid as a unit with its diverse set of owners presents a range of challenges. Developing the capability to schedule and control the microgrid in both normal and emergency events is a critical element of this project. Equally important is the development of a microgrid design that provides this service at a minimum cost, by maximizing the benefit of the microgrid assets during the normal operation.The lead institution is Clarkson University (Coulter School of Engineering, School of Business, and School of Arts and Sciences). The primary industrial partner on the project is National Grid USA (Waltham, MA), the electric service provider for a large part of New York and New England, including Potsdam, NY. National Grid would own the underground distribution network that is the backbone of the microgrid. The Electric Power Research Institute, Knoxville, TN, is the broader context partner on the project. In Potsdam, NY, Clarkson University, SUNY Potsdam, the Village of Potsdam, and Canton-Potsdam Hospital are among the entities that would participate in the microgrid and are potential generation owners on the microgrid.

创新伙伴关系：由克拉克森大学研究人员领导的建设创新能力（PFI：BIC）项目旨在开发先进的弹性微电网技术，以提高灾害响应能力。 先进的弹性微电网技术提供持续的电力服务，以支持极端灾害期间流离失所者的关键服务;并提供电力服务，以支持恢复工作人员恢复服务。在紧急情况下，微电网是一个电力“孤岛”，独立于主电网，通过本地发电为这些关键负载提供服务。该项目将重点关注微电网在正常运行和灾害响应期间对人机运行的影响。“智能调度器”技术的开发将使微电网运营商和当地灾难响应团队能够在灾难恢复期间最大限度地提高微电网的性能。在灾难性情况下，微电网必须在与电网断开连接的情况下成功运行两周或更长时间，在这种情况下，损坏程度是不可预见的，并且微电网本身已经经历了能力降低。该项目将对正在进行的项目进行补充，以规划和设计纽约波茨坦的弹性地下微电网。波茨坦微电网的特点是发电机所有者、当地政府、受监管的公用事业和关键负荷实体的独特合作关系。这种多样化的微电网合作伙伴是提供微电网所需弹性的关键。与此同时，将微电网作为一个具有不同业主的单元进行设计、建设和运营也带来了一系列挑战。开发在正常和紧急事件中调度和控制微电网的能力是该项目的关键要素。同样重要的是开发一种微电网设计，通过在正常运行期间最大化微电网资产的效益，以最小的成本提供这种服务。牵头机构是克拉克森大学（库尔特工程学院、商学院和艺术与科学学院）。该项目的主要工业合作伙伴是美国国家电网（马萨诸塞州沃尔瑟姆），该公司是纽约和新英格兰大部分地区（包括纽约州波茨坦）的电力服务提供商。国家电网将拥有作为微电网骨干的地下配电网络。 田纳西州诺克斯维尔的电力研究所是该项目的更广泛的合作伙伴。在纽约州的波茨坦，克拉克森大学、纽约州立大学波茨坦、波茨坦村和广州-波茨坦医院是将参与微电网的实体，并且是微电网上的潜在发电所有者。
