(This is the second part of a three part project, please take a look at the other parts to get the full analysis of Brooklyn College’s energy usage)
We describe in our poster the possible benefits of a microgrid system at Brooklyn college, and compare pre-pandemic energy use (in early March) with the energy use during the pandemic-precipitated shutdown of campus (from mid March until early November) at Boylan Hall, a building at Brooklyn College that houses many administrative and student services, classrooms, and the dining hall.
