U.S. penetration of microgrids by select state 2020
Texas was the leading state in the U.S. based on microgrid penetration capacity, with *** megawatts deployed in 2020. At that same time, New York ranked second, with *** megawatts. By comparison, there was ** megawatts deployed in Arizona.
Microgrids operate in connection to traditional centralized grids but are able to disconnect and operate autonomously. In the future, microgrid technologies are expected to become more prevalent in public sectors.
