Puerto Rico Is Considering Bringing Power Back Through Renewable Microgrids
“The devastating effect of Hurricane Maria has left Puerto Rico without power—but even before the storm, the territory’s electric grid was somewhat outdated. Outages were common, and prices were high. While the current situation is bleak, there are hopes that it could foster a much-needed renovation of the US territory’s infrastructure.

This would localize the production of electricity to smaller regions, each of which would be powered by a small-scale power plant, such as a compact solar array or a few wind turbines.
