Solar Perovskites Power U.S. Army Deployable Microgrid Demonstration
U.S.-manufactured perovskites produced by Swift Solar were used in a demonstration of a Rapid Deployment Hybrid Microgrid for critical infrastructure cyber defense.
Swift Solar, a U.S.-based manufacturer of perovskite tandem solar cells, announced its technology was deployed in a U.S. Department of Defense cyber security demonstration, marking one of the first operational deployments of perovskites.
- The perovskite solar cells were integrated with the Rapid Deployment Hybrid MicroGrid (RDHM) developed by Resilient Energy & Infrastructure.
- The modular microgrids are designed for quick setup and re-location, built in ruggedized 10 ft., 20 ft., and 40 ft. standard shipping containers.
- They are deployable in disaster response, military operation, or remote power generation applications.
The deployable microgrid makes use of multiple energy inputs, containing a diesel generator and battery energy storage system along with the perovskite solar cells.
