Project VOLT: powering the future for commercial and industrial energy users
Commercial and Industrial (C&I) sites face growing pressure to cut carbon, reduce energy costs, and maintain operational resilience — all while energy systems are changing rapidly.
Project VOLT is exploring how multi-vector microgrids, local energy systems combining renewable generation, storage, hydrogen, and smart control technologies, can deliver cleaner, more flexible, and more reliable power for high-energy users and critical infrastructure such as ports, airports, and manufacturing hubs.
In our discovery phase, we’ve assessed the technical and economic potential of these systems to:
-
Strengthen energy resilience
-
Reduce operational costs
-
Provide flexibility to both networks and end users
Join this webinar to hear key findings from us, Northern Powergrid, Newcasle University and Newcastle Airport as we explore real-world customer perspectives, and learn what’s next for the future of microgrids in the North East of England and beyond.
