Title: PG&E Remote Grid Installation Project at Whitaker’s Forest Research Station
Description: The Project involves installation of a new remote solar micro-grid, referred to as a standalone power system (SPS), at the Whitaker’s Forest Research Station within Whitaker’s Forest. Whitaker’s Forest is an approximately 350-acre forest plot owned and managed by the University in Tulare County. The land surrounding Whitaker’s Forest is federal public land: Sequoia National Forest and Kings Canyon National Park. Access to the Project site is via Forest Service Road 14S75. Once installed, the Project would provide existing residential structures on-site with a consistent and reliable source of electricity that would replace the need for the existing overhead electric distribution lines. PG&E will be responsible for installation, and for operation and maintenance, of the facility. The Project consists of a 12-panel solar array mounted on the roof of a new shipping container. Supporting infrastructure includes battery storage, a new driveway, and a new underground conduit between the solar array and the residential structures. The Project is part of PG&E's Remote Grids Pilot Program, a program within PG&E's Community Wildfire Safety Program.
