Microgrid Toolbox
In 2021, Monash University released a suite of interactive resources to support the implementation of microgrids in commercial, industrial and community settings in Victoria, partly funded by the Victorian government’s Microgrid Demonstration Initiative. The Microgrid Electricity Market Operator (MEMO) ‘Toolbox’ comprises a step-by-step journey on how to develop a microgrid – from planning to operations – to help guide precincts, businesses and communities through the process. The toolbox was based on Monash’s own experience in developing a microgrid for our Clayton campus. Monash is now supporting businesses and councils across Victoria to increase uptake of microgrids.
