    Building Energy Resilience
    (2020-05) Evans Engstrom, Shannon; Fisher, Lauren; Panda, Anindya; Reineccius, Megan
    As Puerto Rico’s energy crisis continues, rural communities most vulnerable to energy instability have founded the island’s first energy cooperative to generate their own hydro and solar power. This report summarizes work completed in support of the cooperative’s rooftop solar project - Proyecto Resiliencia Energética Fotovoltaica Comunitaria (ReEnFoCo). Four graduate students conducted background research, created educational materials for prospective cooperative members, and a financial model for the project.
