NECA and IBEW Play Key Role in GridSTAR Center Project at Philadelphia Navy Yard, a Feature of "Industry Today" on Industrial info.com

SUGAR LAND--July 1, 2014--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--While the Philadelphia Navy Yard was once an important location for the construction, repair and maintenance of U.S. naval vessels, the area began to decline after World War II, as the need for shipbuilding and repair declined. Because of this, the Navy Yard now provides 1,200 acres of prime real estate that is ripe for re-development.

In this edition of "Industry Today," learn how the experience and knowledge of the NECA-IBEW team is a key element in the redevelopment of the Philly Navy Yard and how the establishment of a microgrid based on the latest smart grid and renewable energy technologies at the Yard can serve as example for the integration of green energy technologies for the entire country.
