Micro Grid Solutions

Across Northern Canada and other remote regions, microgrid installations play a critical role in powering small communities, work camps, and lodges. Traditionally, these sites have relied heavily on diesel generators to maintain a steady flow of electricity. However, rising diesel costs and the demand for greener, more sustainable alternatives have created a clear need for hybrid microgrid solutions.

Hybrid microgrid systems significantly reduce energy costs while improving sustainability and reliability. By integrating battery storage with existing diesel generators, operators can shut down diesel generators during periods of low demand, lower maintenance costs, and optimize generator load for maximum fuel efficiency. Additional savings and emission reductions are realized when solar or wind generation is added to the system.

AltaStream’s modular approach allows customers to start small and expand over time. Additional battery storage, solar, or wind power can be integrated seamlessly as needs grow. Whether your current installation includes a 50 kW generator, a 250 kW unit, or a 1 MW diesel system, AltaStream designs a customized solution to match your power requirements and budget.

For customers looking to replace aging diesel units, AltaStream can deliver a complete hybrid solution housed in a single, sound-attenuated enclosure. Each system includes a generator (diesel or propane), integrated battery storage, and full automation for seamless operation. This turnkey package provides an immediate path to cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable microgrid power.

Lower Costs

Hybrid microgrids reduce fuel use by optimizing generator performance and adding battery storage, cutting both fuel and maintenance expenses.

Cleaner Energy

Integrating solar or wind generation with existing systems reduces greenhouse gas emissions and lowers the community’s carbon footprint.

Scalable & Flexible

AltaStream’s modular design lets you start small and expand over time, adding more battery storage or renewable sources as your needs grow.
