The evaluation system to ensure the transport of emergency supplies of fuel to the hospitals

Abstract

Nowadays we can see an increase of emergency and crisis. One of these may be a power outage. However, this can also be a cascade effect because of the windshield. Hospitals are a critical infrastructure sector where it is essential to ensure a constant supply of electricity. At the time of the power outage aggregates are used for which it is necessary to provide the supply of fuel. Each hospital has different stocks of fuel and therefore needs emergency supplies of this raw material. For this purpose, an assessment system is proposed for hospitals, but also for regions, which would determine the current state of fuel availability in hospitals in the area. The aim of this paper is to introduce an assessment system for providing emergency supplies of fuel deliveries to hospitals in the event of a power outage. The paper will address hospital capacities regarding fuel stocks in the event of an outage. In the next part, the analysis of selected hospitals and their subsequent comparison will be carried out. Furthermore, the area of emergency fuel supplies for hospitals will be addressed. At the end of the paper, an assessment system will be designed to ensure the delivery of emergency fuel supplies. © 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
