The Donald and Tarnagulla Microgrid Feasibility Study was part of the Regional and Remote Communities Reliability Fund Microgrids Program funded by the Commonwealth Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources to support feasibility studies looking at microgrid technologies to replace, upgrade or supplement existing electricity supply arrangements in off-grid and fringe-of grid communities located in regional and remote areas. This study yielded insights on factors that can drive cost-effectiveness of microgrids beyond remoteness and cost of connection and or augmentation, such as reliability challenges.
