Solar+Storage Microgrids for Community Resilience

Solar paired with energy storage provides a clean and reliable source of backup power in the event of an outage. This video, produced by Clean Energy Group, outlines the economic, environmental, and resilience benefits of a solar and energy storage-powered microgrid at community facilities, such as health clinics, affordable and senior housing, food banks, and fire stations. The video introduces the concept of a microgrid and how it can serve a community during power outages.

Clean Energy Group’s Technical Assistance Fund offers project development support to community-serving microgrids. Over the last 10 years, Clean Energy Group has provided early-stage technical assistance to over 360 facilities, over 100 of which have installed solar and/or energy storage so far.
