American Microgrid Solutions has pioneered the design and development of microgrids for multifamily housing facilities around the country, whether the innovative Hillandale Gateway in Silver Spring, MD or Kingsway Senior Housing in Connecticut. More than designing microgrids to power these facilities, American Microgrid Solutions specializes in systems optimized to meet the needs of people who rely on electrically powered medical equipment. As part of this work, we support Senior Living facilities to help them achieve greater savings, security and sustainability by incorporating microgrids.

Microgrids & Multifamily Housing
What benefits do microgrids bring to multifamily housing and senior living facilities?
Microgrids can help affordable housing developers, operators, and residents reduce costs and hedge against rising prices. Not only is there a financial benefit to installing a microgrid but also one of reliability and accessibility. Microgrids allow residents who face mobility or other health challenges to shelter in place during a power outage.
​
Can microgrids be installed on existing multifamily and senior living facilities?
Absolutely. As with any project, retrofitting new systems to existing facilities has challenges. But American Microgrid Solutions designs systems to meet and overcome these challenges every day.
​
Are there financial incentives to support microgrid-powered multifamily and senior living facilities?
Yes. Multifamily and senior-living facilities, even those that are owned by non-profits and other non tax-paying entities can take advantage of federal and, in states that offer them, state incentives. American Microgrid Solutions identifies those opportunities to our clients and helps them apply for and implement them.
