Individual businesses can improve resilience to power outages by:

• installing solar and battery systems that work in an electricity outage (not all do, your system needs to be able to isolate from the grid)
• having battery-powered eftpos devices and an emergency cash stash
• organising backup power for essential functions, such as mobile batteries (including EV batteries if needed), generators, or mobile trailers with solar and batteries
• considering satellite backup for phones and internet, or old-school UHF radios, to stay connected.
