Store backup power sources on a trailer or mobile platform to move away from disasters and towards areas of need. Keep track of your power sources with the Power Supply inventory template. | Potential sources of backup power: Solar panels Deep cycle batteries & inverters Filled propane tanks Gas tanks (non-ethanol with fuel stabilizer additive) Diesel tanks and generators |
| Solar emergency response trailer | |
This trailer can serve as a mobile disaster response unit, be packed to best serve the crisis you’re responding to, and provide power for tools, generators, or devices. Consider hosting a tool library in a mobile trailer, so tools are easy to move to where they’re needed. | Fill a movable trailer with emergency response supplies (see other entries with lists) that is also equipped with a solar panel. |
