Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2019 Local renewable resources, such as geothermal hot springs, are being explored as prime electric power and heat sources in remote permanently islanded microgrids, and in some cases these renewable resources have already been implemented. In these typ...
