Just built one of these myself. I went NVME M.2 instead of SD Card to avoid data corruption. I know SD Cards are fine if you don’t write to them a lot but if you wanna update or add your own stuff, scares me. Plus NVME is just so much faster.
Pretty much what Sinthesis said; USB power brick and/or solar panels. Both at the ready and tested. Also got a big ass battery backup that will charge off solar panels.
You find a generator, or solar panels, or wind mill, or water turbine, or a bicycle hooked up to a generator.
If electricity permanently goes out then we’re in a scavenger situation and it is time to start taking apart things that are no longer necessary to build the things that are.

How would you access the info if electricity permanently goes out?

You only need 20 watts of power. One of those dinky fold up solar panels would work. Add a USB power brick for cloudy days.
