4. Complementary Solutions Water Management
Pioneering partnership for the nation’s largest water and
wastewater system is on track to deliver $100 million
per year in financial and environmental benefits, in addition to
reduced water costs for 9 million New Yorkers
Our KOH and oily sludge recovery services are saving our refinery
clients millions of dollars and turning waste into a resource

5. Complementary Solutions Energy Management
Energy O&M at the MATEP microgrid plant keeps the lights and heat on,
medical tools sterilized and equipment running at six mission-critical
Harvard Medical School affiliated hospitals in Boston
As owner’s representative for the development of a pharmaceutical
campus CHP plant and O&M operator under a long-term contract, we help
deliver critical power and thermal energy to support vital
medical research, while achieving significant fuel and water
savings

6. Complementary Solutions Environmental Services
Veolia’s latest state-of- the-art facility recycles fluorescent lamps, ballasts,
batteries, computer electronics and mercury-bearing waste – protecting the
environment and human health
Our regeneration services are providing beneficial reuse solutions
for sulfuric and hydrofluoric (HF) acids, and solvents - boosting fuel economy
for the oil and gas sector, while also reducing carbon emissions

8. MICROGRID OVERVIEW

9. As an interconnected system of
distributed generating sources and
controllable consumption loads,
microgrids can connect and disconnect
from the electric grid to provide a resilient
and uninterrupted energy supply
Microgrids are at the heart of a transformed
power system – representing a sustainable
energy evolution from a centralized electric grid

10. Demand response
• Technique used to match energy demand with supply
• Reduces energy cost and stress on grid
Dispatchable loads can be programmed to turn on when
electricity rates are low
• HVAC building pre-heating or pre-cooling
• EV charging at night
Smart Buildings Enhance Microgrid Value

11. Cybersecurity risk ↑Natural disaster severity ↑
Reduce Energy Supply Risk
Independence from centralized grid
via onsite generation

12. Retail electricity rates ↑
Reduce Cost of Delivered Energy
Reduce T&D cost
Reduce generation cost
Counteract changing rate structures
(with energy storage)

An efficient technology that recycles thermal energy in its electricity generation
process, CHP provides a more dispatchable and reliable energy
back-bone for a microgrid over renewable generation like solar and wind

16. - Microgrids often utilize
multiple distributed energy
resources (DERs)
- The market for non-
microgrid DERs is large

new microgrid

20. A 13.2 megawatt microgrid that will be operated by Veolia supports 18
million sq ft of high-end commercial and residential space with efficient
electrical and thermal energy for the largest real estate development in
New York City

21. Grant study funded by New Jersey
Board of Public Utilities
The proposed project expands capacity of
Veolia’s existing thermal grid
o 30 buildings
o Critical Customers include Governor’s Office, State Justice
Complex, City Hall, SunBank Arena, Trenton State Prison
It would incorporate new distributed energy resources in
municipal buildings (solar)
The anticipated benefits of this project include:
o Reliability and resiliency for critical facilities
o Lower carbon emissions
o Efficient energy supply

22. Cities are Also Sponsoring Microgrids Boston BPDA Microgrid Report

23. Puerto Rico PREPA 2.0?
Following Hurricane Maria’s destructive onslaught in Puerto Rico in
September 2017, over 50% of Puerto Rican citizens were still without
power as of January 2018 – resulting in a lack of clean water, unreliable
healthcare and the temporary closure of schools
With a history of stagnant infrastructure investments and
$9 billion in debt, the island has a strong incentive to privatize its
utility system and invest in microgrid technology
