Fuel Autonomy is the length of time a site's generators can run on stored fuel before resupply is needed, at a given load. Expressed in hours or days, it is a headline resilience metric, often driven by contractual or tier requirements, and is determined by total fuel storage, generator load and consumption rate, plus assured refueling arrangements.
