FAA Chandalar Lake NDB Hybrid Power Source Upgrade

EDC provided electrical engineering for a power system upgrade utilizing a diesel generator as a backup to the primary source photovoltaic (PV) array, wind turbines and battery bank. The project included a SCADA system to monitor the battery/inverter package and start the generator when the solar and wind sources did not provide sufficient power. The system also included fuel level monitoring and dial-up remote reporting.
