Empower security and innovation
The Land Grant Energy Security Alliance is a transformative initiative aimed at fortifying our nation’s energy infrastructure while securing the economic future of Morrill Act land-grant universities. By harnessing the expertise and land resources of these universities, we focus on developing cutting-edge energy storage solutions for partner energy companies while promoting energy stability and security nationwide. Our mission in promoting these multiple public-private partnerships is to enhance energy resilience and security, fund energy engineering schools and courses, reduce environmental impact, and provide financial resiliance for our member institutions through innovative systems, beginning with storage and redundency opportunities. Together, we pave the way for a sustainable energy future.
The Benefits
- Educational Pioneering: Through this partnership, Alliance members will have an opportunity to lead in the area of Energy Engineering, setting the pace for energy awareness and preparedness for the next 100 years.
- Financial Independence: Each participating university can expect significant long-term fiscal resiliance and growth, enabling them to expand their endowments, fund scholarships, and reinvest in their campuses.
- Energy Resilience: By installing large-scale energy storage systems, these institutions and their energy partner are able to work collaboratively and contribute to the stability of the regional power grid and/or provide reliable power for consumer rate payers while eliminating the need for reliance on expensive "peaker" operations.
- Environmental Impact: Through the use of clean energy technologies, the Alliance is contributing to the national effort to reduce carbon emissions and advance sustainability.
