Thermo Shares Microgrid Expertise with IDEA

The 2020 Spring Edition of District Energy Magazine features an informative article on microgrids authored by Thermo’s Serge Zinger and Jason Wittkamp. The article titled Using Control Systems to Optimize Microgrids with CHP covers specific examples of projects completed by Thermo Systems. To illustrate the successful deployment of microgrid systems, Serge and Jason share their experience with three different customer types in the New York, N.Y., metro area: Hudson Yards, a real estate megaproject; the TWA Hotel at John F. Kennedy International Airport; and New York University. While the considerations and needs driving each of their decisions to implement a microgrid may have varied, one common factor for all was the implementation of an industrial-grade SCADA solution with a programmable automation controller-based plant control system.
