Power reliability in question? Energy bills high?
The best-fit resilience solution considers your energy use profile, disaster duration, and, saves you money.
STEP1 Calculate and Right SIZE
Map Out Your Energy Profile
Knowing your energy demand is the first step to choosing the right backup power system. Your energy bill is only half the picture; which appliances use the most energy, how much, and when, illuminates the whole picture.
Your energy profile allows you to cut through the one-size-fits-all sales pitch to focus on what you actually need.
STEP2 Critical Loads and Outage Duration
Choose How Long, and What to Keep On
How long to ride through an outage -two hours or two days or two weeks- and which appliances to keep on determines how large or small of a backup power system will work for you.
You can cut your system cost in half, or double your ride-through time by considering essential vs non-essential loads.
Step3 Don't Be Oversold
Know Your Options Before Shopping
Will solar and battery cover your needs or is a back up generator a better option? Depending on your fuels -electricity, gas- and how they are used, you have options to meet your backup objectives and they come with trade-offs in costs, duration, and carbon.
