Can hospitals become power grid independent?

Hospitals typically have on-site power generation in the form of diesel powered standby generators and may also use uninterruptible power supplies to protect critical IT networks, laboratory equipment and patient systems. Provided the generator fuel capacity can be maintained the hospital can run independent of the grid power supply. Further developments that could help to make a hospital grid independent include local renewable power generation (solar PV and wind turbine) and local energy storage in the form of lithium-ion battery packs.
