At last year's Defense Innovation Summit, Erik Limpaecher, the leader of the Energy Systems Group at Lincoln Laboratory, talked about fundamentally changing the Department of Defense's existing emergency-response approach and putting in place infrastructure for addressing long-term power outages. In his talk, he tests the assumption that energy resilience for long-term outages costs more than existing infrastructure.

Erik Limpaecher from MIT Lincoln Laboratory tests the assumption that energy resilience for long-term outages costs more than existing energy infrastructure.
