Protect Your Home. Prepare Your Family.

North Carolina faces hurricanes, ice storms, rolling blackouts, and aging infrastructure. Here's how to be ready — not scared.

Jump to Resilience Checklist

What NC Homeowners Face

Understanding the threats is step one. None of this is to scare you — it's to help you prepare before the next event, not during it.

Hurricanes & Tropical Storms

2-4 named storms impact NC annually

Multi-day outages are the norm. Hurricane Florence left 700,000+ NC homes without power for days.

Extreme Heat

Duke Energy rolling blackouts increasing

Summer peak demand strains the grid. Without cooling, heat-related illness risk soars.

Ice Storms & Winter Events

Dec 2022: 500K+ homes lost power

Ice on power lines causes widespread, long-duration outages every 2-3 winters.

Infrastructure Aging

40% of NC grid is 30+ years old

Aging transmission lines and substations mean even average thunderstorms trigger outages.

Your Home Resilience Checklist

Work through these items at your own pace. Even completing two or three dramatically improves your readiness.

1

Portable Power Station

A 500Wh–1kWh LiFePO4 unit keeps phones, CPAP, Wi-Fi, and a mini-fridge running for 8-24 hours.

See our 500Wh Power Bank
2

Solar Charging Panel

A foldable 100W panel recharges your station during the day — indefinite power as long as you have sun.

3

Emergency Kit Contents

Flashlight, first-aid kit, battery radio, water purification tabs, 72-hour food supply, important documents in a waterproof bag.

See our Storm Ready Kit
4

Communication Plan

Designate an out-of-area contact. Agree on a meetup point. Download offline maps. Register with ReadyNC.gov.

5

Home Hardening

Trim trees near power lines. Secure outdoor furniture. Know your main water shutoff. Consider impact-rated garage door bracing.

6
