This white paper focuses on tools that support design, planning and operation of microgrids (or aggregations of microgrids) for multiple needs and stakeholders (e.
In islanded mode, control strategies focus on self-sufficiency, managing limited energy resources to avert supply disruptions. In contrast, grid-connected mode leverages the broader grid for additional stability, requiring synchronized operations between the microgrid.
EPC Energy serves the utility and developer market with multi-MWh solutions featuring 40′ container or skid-based designs. These scalable designs feature integrated LFP battery racks, power electronics, HVAC, fire suppression, energy management system (s), and balance of plant.

A microgrid is capable of operating in grid-connected and stand-alone modes and of handling the transition between the two. In the grid-connected mode, can be provided by trading activity between the microgrid and the main grid. Other possible revenue streams exist. In the islanded mode, the real and reactive power generated within the microgrid, including that provided by the energy storage system, should be in balance with the demand of local loads. Microgrids offer an option to bal.
In short, a smart grid denotes the system-wide intelligent upgrade of the power system, while a microgrid denotes a localized energy network. Both relate to renewable energy development and aim to support more sustainable power and economic operation.
With Bhutan's techno-economically viable hydropower potential at 23,000 MW (from 90 sites outside ecological parks), solar at 12,000 MW, wind at 800 MW, and biomass at 2,700 GWh annually, the NEP 2025 sets ambitious targets: 25,000 MW total generation capacity by 2040.
