Emergency Battery Co-Lab Interest Form
The Emergency Battery Co-Lab is an 8-week learning sprint into starting a community backup battery supply!  An emergency battery network is a community-organized mutual-aid group where people work together to provide backup batteries during power emergencies and provides an efficient way for communities to manage and share energy resources in times of need. 

This Emergency Battery Co-Lab will include an 8-week learning series, digital toolbox, and free or discounted battery packs for participants.

  • 2024 Schedule: TBD

The online training program will be emergent, based on the model developed by People Power Battery Collective (a project of People Power Solar Cooperative), and will cover the following:

  • Building community for your network
  • Determining who will use your batteries (needs and capacity assessments)
  • Assessing emergency and disaster scenarios (and how to be ready for when they occur)
  • Determining what kind and how many batteries your network needs
  • Managing and maintaining digital infrastructure, batteries, members, etc.
  • Building your network culture
