As the saying goes, “if it was simple, everyone would be doing it.” An emergency power grid is no exception. The call is for a “grid” that focuses on the whole community approach to emergency power readiness and response. We have taken our decade plus experience in emergency power solutions and built the Emergency Logistics Grid (ELG®) with AI from the ground up.
ELG is designed with one goal: operational integrity. Without electricity, business ceases to function. The business suffers and the community suffers. The longer the outage, the worse it gets.
Why!
The baseline is Community Critical Businesses (CCBs) and municipal facilities. CCBs are those that provide food, fuel, money and/or medicine. Keeping them open during disaster relieves the impact of the event on the business and the community. Municipal Public Works must continue to operate to provided water, sewer and flood mitigation.
How!
It is not feasible for every location to have an onsite generator. However; it is feasible for every location to have a mobile generator connection point. ELG accommodates both. The challenge is logistics. That is where ELG with AI is a game changer. Delayed, sporadic and often inaccurate human reporting is replaced with automated situational status, alerts and data in real-time. Recovery is as simple as following the roadmap provided on the ELG platform.
For!
While you focus on day-to-day operations, ELG focuses on your power status and response when needed. Historically, emergency power is out of sight and out of mind until disaster strikes. Over time, it is easy for the best laid plans to fall through the cracks due to complacency, employee turnover or oversight. With ELG, you don’t have to worry about that. VELMA® will take care of you. She is your Virtual Emergency Logistics Management Assistant and is at your service 24/7/365.
