Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) documented the University of California, San Diego's (UCSD) microgrid, a leading example of a locally controlled electricity network interconnected with the larger grid. This system manages 42 megawatts of generating capacity, comprising a central cogeneration plant, solar photovoltaic installations, and a fuel cell utilizing natural gas reclaimed from a landfill.

RMI seeks to identify and amplify solutions capable of transforming the electricity system. Learn more about their work at http://www.rmi.org/electricity.
