Wildfires, Blackouts, and the Communities That Fought Back Community microgrids are transforming the future of energy by improving grid resilience, strengthening disaster preparedness, and saving lives during major power outages. In this episode of Clean Power Hour, host Tim Montague is joined by Lisa Cohn, Co-Founder of Microgrid Knowledge, to explore how community microgrids are reshaping the solar and energy storage industry. One of the most compelling examples comes from Blue Lake Rancheria in Humboldt County, California. During a PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) caused by wildfires, the community microgrid remained operational, providing critical electricity for residents who depended on life-saving medical devices. The project became one of the strongest real-world demonstrations of how community microgrids can protect lives when the traditional grid fails. Lisa shares insights from more than a decade of tracking community microgrid projects across the United States, explaining why some projects succeed while others never move beyond the planning stage. She discusses the funding strategies, utility partnerships, regulatory policies, and public-private collaborations that are driving the rapid growth of this market. ### In this episode, you'll discover: • How Blue Lake Rancheria became one of America's most successful community microgrid case studies. • How the Redwood Coast Airport Microgrid secured $5 million from the California Energy Commission and $6.5 million in low-interest USDA financing. • Why California replaced the restrictive CMEP program with the Microgrid Incentive Program (MIP), allowing community microgrids to operate 24/7 while providing grid services and demand response. • The differences between public power utilities and investor-owned utilities (IOUs), including how tribal communities are overcoming traditional regulatory barriers. • How Portland General Electric and other utilities are developing innovative community battery and microgrid programs. • Why state legislation in California, Oregon, Maryland, Wisconsin, and other states is accelerating community microgrid deployment. • The emerging concept of networked microgrids that can share electricity between neighboring communities, creating a more resilient and reliable energy system. Community microgrids represent one of the fastest-growing opportunities in renewable energy, battery storage, and distributed energy resources. As climate-related disasters, grid failures, and electricity demand continue to increase, these systems are becoming a critical part of the future electric grid. Whether you're a solar installer, EPC, project developer, utility professional, investor, engineer, or clean energy enthusiast, this conversation provides valuable insights into where the community microgrid market stands today—and where the biggest opportunities are headed. ## Connect with Lisa Cohn 🌐 Clean Energy Writers https://cleanenergywriters.com 💼 LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisaellencohn/ 🏢 Microgrid Knowledge https://www.microgridknowledge.com/ 📘 Tim Montague's Book Wired for Sun: The Commercial Solar Playbook https://www.cleanpowerhour.com/book 📅 Book a Free Commercial Solar Strategy Call https://calendly.com/tim-montague/coaching_consulting 👕 Clean Power Hour Merchandise https://cleanpowerhour.merchyme.com/ 🤝 Sponsor the Show https://www.cleanpowerhour.com/p/media-kit/ ⚡ About Our Sponsor – CPS America The Clean Power Hour is proudly sponsored by CPS America, North America's leading provider of three-phase string inverters.
