Exercise Poseidon is a 36-hour exercise based on a Wellington earthquake scenario. By coming to Wellington, the Response Teams will test their response capabilities and skills, their inter-team coordination and their ability to deploy to a different part of Aotearoa. The exercise will take place from the 4th to 6th of October, with most activities occurring on Saturday the 5th. All of the Response Teams will be based out of Trentham Military Camp and perform activities at different locations across the Wellington region. These include Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, Porirua Police College, Upper Hutt Community Corrections, New Zealand Campus of Innovation and Sport (NZCIS) the Town Hall and more. emergencyservices Mon, 30 Sep 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.wremo.nz/news-and-events/wremo-news/exercise-poseidon-north-island-new-zealand-response-teams-practice-for-a-wellington-earthquake/ Wellington Regional Emergency Management Office (WREMO) 2024-09-30T00:00:00Z https://www.wremo.nz/news-and-events/wremo-news/aotearoas-first-solar-battery-powered-community-emergency-hub/ Innovative post-disaster emergency telecommunications implemented at Naenae Community Emergency Hub. After a major disaster like an earthquake or storm, damaged infrastructure and power outages can make it hard for people to stay connected with loved ones and services. This can impact community well-being, as well as response and recovery efforts. To address this, a pilot project was implemented to test an innovative solution that will provide power and internet access to the community after a disaster. naenae huttvalley places emergencyservices Thu, 05 Sep 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.wremo.nz/news-and-events/wremo-news/aotearoas-first-solar-battery-powered-community-emergency-hub/ Wellington Regional Emergency Management Office (WREMO) 2024-09-05T00:00:00Z -41.2043217 174.9460703169205
