When disaster strikes, lives depend on access to power. Andrew MacCalla of Direct Relief joins Dave this week to discuss solar energy's critical role in disaster relief and response. Drawing on over a decade of experience responding to catastrophes globally, Andrew describes the devastating impact of power loss on vulnerable communities and how deploying solar microgrids at health facilities can be truly lifesaving. Tune in to hear how solar providers can partner more closely with nonprofits, how to get portable power where it's needed most, and what emerging technologies may transform disaster response in the future.
