That’s easy. Bury it or otherwise make it disappear so we can keep making bank on petrochemicals. duh!

Sorry for the cynicism. I can’t help it. I’ve seen too much.

Not huge. I have a bluetti AC200L and 1000 watts of mismatched panels. It’s plugged into the wall socket and switche to grid power at 40% of capacity.

Router and modem plus NAS average a continuous 70 watt draw. The fridge is the biggest draw as it turns on regularly and uses about 80 watts, and runs a defrost cycle for 40 minutes at 300 watts.

None of it will matter. That said, short term FUBAR can be mitigated. I have a semi-portable solar setup that currently runs my internet, NAS, Fridge and to some degree, the A/C.

To prep for the serious mess, I have to get Faraday bags for my server, drives, and solar generator and have enough time to bag everything before the EMP hits.

I have survival guides in book form as well as on the NAS, and I work the land enough to bring the soil into balance and build its fertility, plus feed the bees so they’ll be there when I need them.

The DIY option is simpler than that. Just hook some heavy draw appliances to the solar generator permanently and plug the generator into the grid to pass through electricity when the battery drains to a defined level. When solar charges it to a higher level (usually +10%) it triggers the direct use of solar again.
