Disclosed is an all-in-one emergency shed that can supply electricity and potable drinkable water during an emergency when electrical grid power is not available and water sources may be contaminated. The emergency shed can use battery banks from electric cars to store electrical energy for emergencies and can store electrical energy in electric car battery banks that are charged during off-peak times and resold to the utility company during peak demand periods.
