Given the important lessons learned about the vulnerabilities of emergency power supply systems during Hurricanes Hermine and Matthew, Powered for Patients is working with officials in Southeastern states to launch initiatives to chronicle lessons learned. These initiatives will also focus on identifying opportunities to enhance stakeholder coordination and information sharing in states as it relates to safeguarding emergency power and expediting power restoration.
Public and private sector stakeholders interested in participating in state initiatives are encouraged to contact Powered for Patients Project Director Eric Cote at cote@poweredforpatients.org.
