DHS announced the five winners of the Clean Power for Hours Challenge, awarding a total of $835,000 to recipients for their innovative clean energy solutions to keep essential services functioning during power outages.
As the Biden-Harris Administration celebrates Earth Day, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the five winners of the Clean Power for Hours Challenge.
S&T and the Coastal Resilience Center are researching ways to enhance disaster resilience in socially vulnerable communities.
The Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate identified three goals to advance institutional risk analysis capabilities to support the Department's resilience and readiness programs. This effort is expected to provide DHS with research and analysis intended to inform risk analysis qualifications and training guidelines to enable a stronger, better-informed futures cadre at DHS.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) will, as a member, build a strategic partnership with the Open Geospatial Consortium, allowing DHS to gain insight into innovative global climate change adaption and resilience research. This knowledge helps better inform DHS climate research and development initiatives.

This innovative research for improving national water infrastructure will enable S&T to better protect the public against catastrophic impacts a water infrastructure failure would cause.
One of the most enduring findings in disaster and climate change research is that socially marginalized communities are disproportionally more at risk from environmental hazards, and thus, less likely to recover fully and quickly. A community plan aimed at resilience could allow the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other agencies to pro-actively identify support for mitigation based on community needs, with equity as its foundation.
AmPPER will enable the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate to provide critical information on ammonia storage and its potential impact on ports and surrounding communities. Through data-driven mitigation and resilience recommendations, we empower the U.S. Coast Guard, FEMA, and emergency response communities to enhance preparedness.
