Yes! “Passive survivability” is much increased when a building is skillfully weatherized.
#weatherization = higher resilience
This is an amazing and, in my experience, almost entirely unappreciated benefit of electric vehicles that have vehicle-to-load or -home capabilities. (Most have V2L but few have V2H today.) EV companies should cultivate this capability and hit it much harder in their advertising.
Add Pennsylvania to the list of states with a credible accounting of how disastrous dedication to market fundamentalism has been.
