The Winneshiek Energy District worked and Winneshiek County Emergency Management are proud to share a handy “Resilient Resources” reference booklet with the public. This booklet contains local resources for greater community resilience & disaster preparedness including…

  • Phone numbers for local first responders
  • Storm damage protocol
  • A list of county emergency shelters
  • Information about the county’s mobile solar trailer
  • Resilient energy systems & tips
  • and more!

Physical copies of this 6 x 6 inch booklet will soon be available at mobile solar trailer events. Download a digital version below.

This project was made possible by the Iowa Economic Development Authority’s Community Energy Resilience program which made possible the purchase of Winneshiek County’s mobile solar generator and associated training and community outreach materials.
