In Rockville, Maryland, Montgomery County embarked on a significant initiative by breaking ground for a green microgrid project at the David F. Bone Equipment Maintenance and Transit Operations Center. This project, supported by the bipartisan federal infrastructure law, is set to transform the facility into the nation's largest renewable energy-powered transit facility by the end of 2025. Spearheaded by AlphaStruxure, the microgrid will not only feature a 5.5-megawatt capacity but will also include a solar array, electric bus chargers, battery storage, and a hydrogen electrolyzer powered by solar panels. Notably, the integration of on-site green hydrogen production makes this project a pioneering effort on the East Coast. Additionally, the microgrid's self-contained design will enable it to operate independently during power outages, ensuring continuous transit operations. This groundbreaking ceremony serves as a cornerstone for advancing sustainable transportation practices and underscores the county's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. The project's comprehensive approach highlights the importance of integrating renewable energy sources and cutting-edge technology to create a more environmentally friendly and resilient public transportation system.
