"Some members of the solar industry are pointing to home energy systems, equipped with batteries and solar, as a possible solution to help neighborhoods recover after hurricanes."

And biofuels would suffer the same distribution disruptions as any conventional fuel, such as impassable roads. That's if the feed crops and their processing plants were not destroyed.
