Designing with Power Source Adaptability in Mind to Expedite Upgrades in Facility Improvements & Expansions
Time: 10:20 am
day: Day1
Details:
- Evaluating the benefit of building these design modifications in from base design vs waiting until systems need upgrading
- Calculating the additional water usage and logistics of new sources ahead of pulling the trigger to ensure you are making the right choice
- Understanding the additional monitoring and breakers you need to install to facilitate a seamless transition from one power source to another, and how that will tie into the existing infrastructure control system
- Discussing how to approach your initial design to account for emerging generation technologies as they roll out to avoid major retrofits
