How a Microgrid Works

That article is a bunch of green Agenda 21 BS.
“in a bad storm when we lose electricity, we lose water and septic”
“The rural community is filled with trees and wires.”
The selectwoman does not appear to be very bright...
A septic tank functions just fine without electricity-pour a bucket of water into the toilet bowl to flush if the pump isn’t running because the power is out...
And the tree limbs near the wires-which are located in the utility easement-are trimmed each winter by a professional service here-doesn’t every rural county do that?
Is there really anyone outside of a major city who does not keep at least 50 gallons of water on hand for washing and toilet flushing, plus enough bottled drinking water for a week? Anyone who does not have at least the most primitive of rain-capture systems-a couple of clean, large garbage cans under a roof overhang or gutter?
