Community Microgrid Resilience Under Intensifying Climate Conditions

Examining how intensifying climate change affects the resilience benefits of community solar and storage microgrids in the Pacific Northwest.

The research

Overview

Aya Alayli’s study is a subproject of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation–supported project “Community-Defined Microgrid Resilience Across Interdependent Services and Changing Climate Conditions.”

This research examines the long-term resilience performance of solar and storage systems under intensifying climate conditions. Following exploratory work in Spring 2025, Aya developed a microgrid dispatch simulation to evaluate resilience under uncertain climate conditions.

In Autumn 2026, the work expanded to consider interdependent community services, alongside preparatory work for participatory research with Washington communities.
