The book shelf · Energy & tools
Backup power, home maintenance, and the small gas equipment layer — the skill set for a household that keeps running when the grid doesn’t.
Energy resilience in a real household operates in three layers: the backup power strategy (what you do when the grid goes down), the home systems literacy that keeps everything running efficiently, and the small gas equipment skills that keep backup tools operational. The books on this shelf address all three.
None of these books require you to be an electrician, plumber, or mechanic. They assume you’re a capable adult who hasn’t been taught this stuff and wants to learn it.
