Team

Let us know who's on the team! This allows us to know who is part of each team and give credit to each member. You use the HeroX Community to create a team and have all team members join (and we recommend that you do this), but we would also like to know more about the innovative people working together. In the field below, please provide details for each team member on separate lines. Refer to the example below for help.

Official Team Name

Collective Energy, Community Health Center Capital Fund, and Chiricahua Community Health Center Microgrid Lending and Development Project

Official Team Location

Ojai, CA

Ojai itself is a rural community in a Tier 3 fire threat area and suffers from frequent power outages from PSPS events and unreliable grid. Our family had to evacuate for the Thomas Fire in December 2017 and were out of our home for nearly a month. We've now helped a nonprofit social service agency, a nonprofit rescue dog training centers, a school, and a youth homeless facility install solar and/or battery storage microgrids for the risks we face here from power loss.
