Mendham, NJ. The Power Sources Manufacturers Association’s (PSMA) Energy Efficiency Committee is sponsoring an “Energy Management-Smart Microgrid” industry session at APEC 2017. Consisting of presentations by seven industry experts, Session IS20 will be held on Thursday March 30 from 2:00 p.m. to 5:25 p.m. at the Tampa Convention Center.
Smart microgrids are rapidly becoming accepted to manage local energy distribution for critical applications in a variety of industry applications.
