WRCOG, in collaboration with its 19 member jurisdictions, will develop a comprehensive sub-regional Energy Resiliency Plan aimed at improving Western Riverside County’s resilience to PSPSs, power shortages and emergencies. The Plan will identify specific projects and strategies to develop independent energy sources in each jurisdiction, including back-up generators, energy storage, and development of local power microgrids. In developing the Energy Resilience Plan, WRCOG will collaborate with UC Riverside’s Center for Environmental Research & Technology and Western Community Energy, a Community Choice aggregation program.
