Lessons Learned from The Clean Energy To Communities Peer-Learning Cohort on Enhancing Resilience at Critical Facilitiesthrough Solar, Storage, and Microgrids
NREL (NREL), with support from World Resources Institute (WRI), designed and led a six-month peer-learning cohort from January through July 2024 on Enhancing Resilience at Critical Facilities through Solar, Storage, and Microgrids as part of the U.S Department of Energy's Clean Energy to Communities (nrel.gov/c2c) (C2C) program. Representatives from 15 municipalities, municipal utilities, colleges, and Tribes from across the United States participated in monthly workshops covering best practices for planning and deploying local resilience projects. This document shares key takeaways, lessons learned, and resources from the cohort.
