Open-Source Renewables: Coupling Resilience to Natural Disasters with Environmental Justice
Organization: Harvey Mudd College
Primary Investigator: Julie Medero
Research Track: Climate & Environmental Resilience

Harvey Mudd College has joined forces with the CHERP-Locally Grown Power to design resilience centers that not only provide emergency power to frontline communities during future disasters but that also help to make clean power affordable for low-income households today.
