Summary	The focus of this project is to create a design tool that can be used to determine the size, distribution and best location for the energy storage system (ESS) needed to ensure the efficient and secure operation of a naval facility. Input parameters to the design tool will include: - The facility’s critical loads. These are the loads necessary for the successful operation of the military facility and which must be powered at all times. - Distributed resources available inside the facility (e.g., photovoltaic sources and backup diesel generators) - Number of days of autonomy required to operate in an islanded mode from the external power grid - Geographical location and available space inside the facility - Energy security requirements
