Learn how adjustable power storage and delivery provide greater flexibility in modulating energy use. Explore fuel-switching options for added reliability and resilience against outages. Learn about a new class of power generators that adapt to changing energy environments.</li><li>Reducing Energy Costs: Discover strategies to cut energy expenses while maintaining care quality. Learn how linear generator microgrids can save costs during peak demand without emissions restrictions, offering a lower Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) than diesel. Understand how microgrids can enable hospitals to offer grid services, participate in demand response, export power, and improve overall grid quality</li><li>Real-world Examples: Review case studies of hospitals enhancing safety and preparing for grid challenges through innovative power solutions and energy cost reductions.</li></ul><p>This webinar is ideal for hospital administrators, facility managers, and energy infrastructure engineers looking to explore advanced energy solutions that can improve operational efficiency and patient care.</p><p><strong>Sponsored by Mainspring Energy.</strong></p><p><em>This is a Lunch & Learn program and is not eligible for CEUs.
