SLA is a 6 story, 4 unit building generating almost 2x the energy needed for full operations; enough excess energy solely over the roof top deck for each owner to drive approximately 14,000 EV miles annually. The 6 story 4 unit building is comprised of 5 separate \"nanogrids\", each seamlessly islanding and remaining fully operational, including EV charging, in any grid outage event. The building was designed to be integrated into a larger community microgrid once the policy to do so exists in California. The building was also designed to integrate V2X technology in order to add to the grid-interoperability of the total energy storage systems, 186 kWh stationary and up to 400 kWh or more of mobile energy storage.

["muGrid Analytics","hello@mugrid.com","https://mugrid.com/contact/ ","Woman-owned small business","•\tMicrogrid modeling including financial, technical, and resilience performance\n•\tComponent sizing and preliminary design\n•\tEconomically optimized grid-connected dispatch control","muGrid Analytics solves wicked problems at the intersection of energy and economics using math and modeling. They provide bankable techno-economic optimization of renewable energy, energy storage, and microgrids.  muGrid has developed the Redcloud energy optimization platform which is used to optimally size technology-agnostic energy generation and storage such that clients meet their energy resilience and sustainability goals at minimum life cycle cost. Redcloud Control is a cloud-based supervisory-layer economic dispatch control platform that uses the same mathematical optimization techniques from the design phase, combined with artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques during system operation to optimize system operational performance."]

["Question 1","1. What technologies represent the current state-of-the-art for this category?"]
["Question 2","2. What are appropriate performance metrics (i.e., ways of measuring or evaluating the performance of a technology), as well as quantitative values for current state-of-the-art, commercially available products for those metrics and future target values for 2020 to characterize and compare different technology solutions under this category?"]
["Question 3","3. The category description includes a list of qualitative capabilities that describe an “ideal” technology.  What additional capabilities or criteria, if any, are missing from this list?"]
["Question 4","4. Regarding current R&D:  a. What technologies are currently under research or investigation?  b. What advantages are these technologies intended to have over those that are commercially available?  c. Do these technologies add any capabilities of an ideal technology (as listed in the Background section) that commercially-available technologies lack?  d. What limitations do these technologies face (e.g., cost, complexity, accuracy, reliability, range)? What additional research is required before they will be commercially available?"]
["Question 5","5. What technologies currently under development might be suitable for large buildings under construction or major renovation?  What technologies currently under development might be suitable for residential buildings or small commercial buildings?  What are the remaining R&D challenges that must be resolved before these technologies could be commercially available?"]
["Question 6","6. Are there intermediate innovations or key enabling technologies that require R&D before improvements in the listed categories are possible?  What are these enabling technologies or innovations?"]
["Question 7","7. What R&D opportunities remain for improving the performance or reducing the cost of existing technologies?  To what extent can existing technologies be improved?"]
["Question 8","8. What are market-acceptable equipment costs, labor costs, maintenance costs, commissioning costs, other costs, and time requirements for technologies in this category (expressed as a function of an acceptable unit [e.g., gross sq. ft., sensor, device, etc.] for each specified parameter)?  Please provide separate responses specific to residential and/or commercial buildings."]
["Question 9","9. What effects could improvements in the technologies within a category have on interest in and adoption of products for building energy management? How might the influence of improved systems differ between the new construction and retrofit markets?"]
["Question 10","10. What market barriers or other challenges, if any, prevent the wider use of existing state-of-the-art technologies?"]
["Question 11","11. What market opportunities would be created by improvements to commercially-available technologies?  What specific capabilities are required from these improved technologies to unlock the market opportunities identified?"]
