DESCRIPTION:The University of St. Thomas (UST) will install a 0.25 MW peak\
 , multipurpose microgrid at their St. Paul campus and establish an Enginee
 ring Senior Design Clinic to provide a platform for power systems engineer
 ing education for undergraduate and graduate students in the School of Eng
 ineering. The microgrid will integrate 50 kW of photovoltaic capacity\, 10
  kW of wind emulation capacity\, 100 to 200 kW of biodiesel capacity\, and
  50 kW to 100 kWh of battery storage capacity. The facility will also prov
 ide a platform that would allow installation and testing of other Distribu
 ted Renewable Resources (DERs) such as fuel cell and flow batteries or oth
 er technologies under development. A K-12 educational curriculum will be d
 eveloped in conjunction with Minnesota State educational standards for ren
 ewable energy\, which will integrate live remote access to the facility ac
 ross Minnesota.\n\n[IEEE vTools Event Information Link](https://meetings.v
