Water is very reliable around here, few hours out at most. I don't bother worrying about electricity, I can get by without it.
Heat though, I keep kerosene heaters and the river house also has a wood fireplace plus nat gas cook stove and non-electric space heater that will keep it warm.

Michigan could soon host the United States’ first commercial small modular nuclear reactors—essentially mini nuclear plants with simpler and more compact designs that proponents say could shorten construction timelines and cut costs.

"Holtec’s SMR-300s, each with the capacity to produce 300 megawatts—enough to power 300,000 homes—is supported by a $116 million award from the Department of Energy. Holtec and the DOE have emphasized safety features, namely that the reactors and spent fuel canisters are located underground, where they’re shielded from weather events and any human intervention.

While typical nuclear plants rely on electrical power to cool their reactors, the SMR-300 depends only on gravity to distribute cooling fluid. In the case of an extreme environmental event, the reactors could cool themselves without a power supply ..."

Yes....available on Temu for $1400 - delivered with that crazy gook writing on the side:

Yes. Two of the power packs have solar batteries too.

The solar things must take forever to charge it though, I would think.

That’s why you charge them i  the electric. The solar is for backup.

I want to make it a goal to never drive on the freeway again. It's too much.
