Eaton highlights opportunities for healthcare decarbonization through energy transition, digitalization, and evolving regulations. The healthcare industry accounts for 8.5% of U.S. emissions, surpassing both residential and commercial sectors. Eaton is developing a microgrid for a California medical center expected to reduce energy costs by 20% and emissions by 25%.

The company emphasizes digital technologies' role in power management optimization, including sensors, AI models, and digital twins. A recent EPA study showed that each dollar saved through better energy performance equals up to $20 in new revenues for non-profit healthcare organizations. The March 2023 CMS waiver now allows healthcare facilities to use alternative emergency power sources, enabling more sustainable solutions like microgrids and solar power.

Eaton provides guidance on the 2023 update to NFPA 70B, which has evolved from a 'Recommended Practice' to a mandatory 'Standard' for electrical maintenance programs. The update includes specific maintenance requirements for energy transition technologies including photovoltaic systems, wind power systems, battery storage, and EV charging infrastructure.

The standard introduces an Equipment Condition Assessment (ECA) system that determines maintenance intervals based on equipment physical condition, criticality, and operating environment. It also defines different types of electrical testing categories and allows for continuous monitoring and predictive techniques to guide maintenance schedules.

Eaton is implementing a renewable energy microgrid at Maplewood Intermediate/Middle School in Menasha, Wisconsin, set to be the largest of its kind in the state. The project, scheduled for completion in 2025, will help achieve net zero energy status and is expected to save the Menasha Joint School District $190,000 in annual energy costs.

The microgrid system incorporates 1.3 megawatts of solar PV panels, energy storage, and natural gas generators. At its core are Eaton's new microgrid controller and battery energy storage system (BESS), enabling strategic energy management. The school, serving approximately 1,000 students, is being built from the ground up with advanced energy conservation strategies to support regional carbon neutrality goals.

The system includes 1.3 megawatts of solar PV panels, energy storage, and natural gas generators.

The project features Eaton's new microgrid controller integrated into a switchboard and xStorage™ battery energy storage system (BESS), enabling strategic energy management. The Menasha Joint School District is pursuing Inflation Reduction Act tax credits to maximize the project's value, with Eaton providing guidance on equipment specifications to meet domestic preference requirements.

Eaton has launched the xStorage battery energy storage system (BESS) to accelerate decarbonization and maximize onsite renewable energy usage. The system provides 250 to 1000 kWh of usable stored energy, with the ability to double capacity through parallel installation. xStorage BESS enables strategic energy dispatch, grid-independent operation, and participation in demand response programs. The solution includes microgrid islanding capabilities, remote monitoring through Brightlayer software, and comprehensive maintenance support through Eaton's national engineer network. The company reported revenues of $23.2 billion in 2023 and serves customers in over 160 countries.
