AngelNet Energy's IS2O-MicroGrid is a comprehensive optimized control system for design and operation of micro-grids for reliable and affordable renewable electricity. It integrates renewable energy (Solar & Wind) with conventional base-load sources and energy storage that eliminates intermittency issue of renewables. By enabling an increase in the supply of reliable, affordable, renewable energy, IS20-MicroGrid will contribute to reduction in harmful emissions and for the first time provide electricity to remote communities, bringing significant social benefits including improved healthcare, agriculture, economic development and employment. The first commercial unit is scheduled to be delivered to a Caribbean Island during the Q01/2018. The Houston Technology Center is assisting IS2O-MicroGrid commercialization under their Energy Incubation/Acceleration Program.
