Abstract: A renewable-energy electrical generation and distribution system including a first container and a second container. Each of the first container and the second container includes a power source disposed within the container and deployable therefrom, and generating energy from a renewable resource. A first compartment is disposed within the container, and retains a battery in communication with the power source. A power distribution system is disposed within the container and in communication with the battery and with the power source. A communications system is disposed within the container and configured to communicate data via an ad-hoc mobile communications network formed by the first container and the second container and configured to operate independent of any communication network not part of the first container and the second container forming the ad-hoc mobile communications network.

Abstract: A renewable-energy electrical generation and distribution system including a container. At least one power source is sized to be retained within the container and deployable therefrom, the at least one power source being configured to generate energy from renewable resources. A battery is disposed within the container and in communication with the at least one power source. A power distribution system is disposed within the container and in communication with the battery and the at least one power source, the power distribution system including: at least one switch and at least one interface connected to the at least one switch and disposed external to the container, the at least one switch configured selectively turn on and off power distribution to the at least one interface based on at least one predetermined parameter.
