Industry Day will provide organizations interested in implementing a secure microgrid with guidance on assessing their facility's needs, translating them into procurement requirements, and assembling the necessary site data package for bidders. Lessons learned and results of the Phase 1 Operational Demonstration performed at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam (JBPHH) with the public sector and partner agencies will be presented by the SPIDERS Transition Manager. This event is open to all stakeholders with an interest in the development of secure microgrids, ranging from policy and regulatory bodies and equipment vendors, to those tasked with the development of standards and specifications, and the utilities that will be interconnecting with these microgrids.
