    MCAS MIRAMAR, Calif. - NAVFAC Southwest ran the MCAS Miramar Micro-grid power plant from 4:00pm to 9:00pm, Aug. 17 in San Diego. This allowed SDG&E to provide power to approximately 3,000 homes in the San Diego community by relieving some of the burden on the grid created by the base during a high demand time when grid power is limited. This event supported a flex alert and was not an Emergency Load Reduction Program situation. The event demonstrated how MCAS Miramar could support the surrounding community in an emergency situation. MCAS Miramar used its available cleaner burning generation to help the state avoid an emergency.
