Community Safety
What is a Resilience Hub?
A Resilience Hub is a community-serving facility, such as a nonprofit, community center, or house of worship, designed to support residents before, during, and after a crisis. Unlike a traditional emergency shelter, a resilience hub is a trusted, year-round neighborhood asset that shifts into emergency mode during power outages, extreme weather, or grid failures.
The Role of Solar + Battery Storage
To serve as a source of stability during a disaster, a hub must be able to island, or disconnect fully, from the local power grid. Pairing solar panels with battery storage ensures that when the municipal grid fails, the building remains a source of stability.
Tailorable Community Support
Resilience hubs are not "one-size-fits-all." Every project is custom-designed in partnership with local leaders to address the specific risks, from wildfires to hurricanes, of their unique neighborhood.
Immediate Disaster Response
During a disaster, hubs provide a powered sanctuary where residents can escape hazardous smoke, stay cool or warm, and find shelter.
Essential Health Support
Uninterrupted power is critical for life-sustaining medical devices and refrigeration of heat-sensitive medications like insulin.
Emergency Connectivity
Hubs function as trusted neighborhood spaces to charge devices and access the internet to coordinate aid and check on loved ones.
