As many states and the federal government are focusing more and more on equity and environmental justice considerations of energy policy decisions, several microgrid projects have been implemented or are being planned that specifically focus on low- to moderate-income (LMI) communities. During this webinar, speakers will discuss completed and envisioned microgrid projects for LMI communities, the unique characteristics and challenges of these projects, and considerations for state regulators and state energy offices.
