陆军工程兵团将在White Sands导弹靶场建先进微电网:太阳能加储能可脱离电网独立运行

ABM 公司11月3日宣布,其能源解决方案子公司 RavenVolt 与 AACON General Contractors 组成的合资公司 AACON-RavenVolt JV,已获得美国陆军工程兵团 Louisville 区授予的建造合同,将在位于新墨西哥州的 White Sands 导弹靶场建设一座先进微电网。
该项目资金来自战争部的能源韧性与节约投资计划(ERCIP),将把太阳能发电、电池储能、现场备用发电与先进控制系统组合在一起,防范外部电网中断、极端天气等扰动对关键军事任务的影响。
按设计—招标—建造模式实施的这座馈线级微电网,将整合车棚式太阳能光伏阵列、大容量电池储能系统(BESS)、可调度的现场发电机组与智能微电网控制系统。各分布式能源资产作为一个协同系统运行,使靶场设施能够无缝切换到孤岛运行、减少对当地公用电网的依赖,并为驻地关键设施提供冗余电力。工程范围还包括新的配电线路、光纤通信与安防基础设施。
ABM 工程与基础设施解决方案总裁 Mark Hawkinson 表示,可靠电力是任务战备的基础,关键军事设施需要坚固、现代化的基础设施来保证连续运转,合资公司将交付一套能在商业电网失效时支撑 White Sands 导弹靶场运转的韧性电力系统。
White Sands 导弹靶场是美军重要的导弹与武器系统试验场。ABM 未在通稿中披露该合同的金额。

Army Corps to Build Advanced Microgrid at White Sands Missile Range: Solar Plus Storage Designed to Run Off-Grid
ABM announced on November 3 that AACON-RavenVolt JV, LLC — a joint venture between its energy solutions subsidiary RavenVolt and AACON General Contractors — has been awarded a construction contract by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District to build an advanced microgrid at White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.
Awarded under the Department of War's Energy Resilience and Conservation Investment Program (ERCIP), the project will combine solar power, battery energy storage, on-site backup generation and advanced controls to safeguard mission-critical military operations against external grid outages, extreme weather events and other disruptions.
Built under a design-bid-build framework, the secure feeder-level microgrid will integrate a carport-mounted solar photovoltaic array, a high-capacity battery energy storage system (BESS), dispatchable on-site generators and an intelligent microgrid control system. Working as a single coordinated system, the distributed energy assets will allow the installation to seamlessly island, reduce dependence on the local utility grid and provide redundant power to vital cantonment-area facilities. The scope also includes new electrical distribution lines, fiber-optic communications and security infrastructure.
Mark Hawkinson, ABM's president for Engineering & Infrastructure Solutions, said reliable power is fundamental to mission readiness and that critical military installations require robust, modern infrastructure to guarantee continuous operation, adding that the joint venture will deliver a resilient power system engineered to sustain White Sands Missile Range when the commercial grid cannot.
White Sands Missile Range is a major U.S. military test range for missiles and weapons systems. ABM did not disclose the value of the contract in its release.
