Awareness of the vulnerability of the country's existing electrical system has increased with the frequency of short-term blackouts and long-term utility outages. Power outages impact airport operations by causing flight delays, extended layovers, disruptions in cargo operations, loss of revenue, and limitations in airports' ability to provide emergency support.

The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP Research Report 228: Airport Microgrid Implementation Toolkit addresses site-specific criteria for airports of all types and sizes.

Associated with this report is ACRP WebResource 19: Airport Microgrid Implementation Tools, a suite of reference materials that can be used to obtain an analysis and determine feasibility of a microgrid for specified airports.
