Microgrid report

The Microgrid report summarises a period: how often the grid failed, how the site got through it and what the generator cost. Open it under Reports → Microgrid report. Every user of the project can see it.

The report is available on projects with Microgrid enabled and on projects with a generator. Without Microgrid it only shows the generator figures.

Period and export

• The report opens on the current month. Pick another preset or a date range of at most 366 days.
• Export downloads the report as a CSV file.

Key figures

Figure	How it is calculated
Grid availability	The share of time the grid was present, over the part of the period in which the grid state is known. The tooltip shows how large that known part is.
Grid outages	How often the grid went from present to absent. An outage counts in the period in which it started.
Reconnections	How often the site landed back on the grid after an island. A failed attempt does not count.
Generator running hours	The time the generator was recorded running. The generator's own runtime counter is used when recording was missing.
Generator energy	The energy the generator produced.
Fuel cost	Generator energy times the Fuel cost set on the generator. A generator without fuel cost is left out, and the report says so.

Sections

Section	Shows
Course of the period	A timeline of when the grid was away and when each generator ran.
Time per operating mode	Hours per day in each operating mode, and the share of the whole period. Time without data shows as Not recorded.
Generators	Per generator: running hours, energy and fuel cost.
Grid outages	Every outage with its start, end and duration.
Reconnections	Per reconnection the Interruption (how long the site was without power) and the Procedure (from the start of the return until the site is back on the grid), with the average and the longest.
