Description
Summary:The paper deals the problem of the energy supply after disaster and emergency. The purpose of the paper is to review the autonomous power supply technology's application to provide electricity in the aftermath of disasters for emergency relief and to remote areas having no access to the grid. Safety requirements for electric power system facilities in case of a threat of violations and/or electricity supply fault are considered. The advantages of different types of autonomous electricity sources for disaster resilience are discussed. On the example of the Sakhalin Island, Russia, a conclusion about the difficulties of using solar electricity sources during the repair and recovery works after accidents and disasters at island territories is drawn. The paper concludes by emphasizing the importance of autonomous power supply technologies in engineering education and integrating them in programs related to alternative energy and disaster & emergency management.
