All businesses require a reliable power source to operate. Whether it’s to keep the machinery going or to ensure employees are connected to online services, it’s essential on a moment-to-moment basis. Power outages can bring operations to a halt, and without a backup generator, there’s no telling how long the downtime may be. No matter your business size, make sure you have an emergency plan should an outage occur.

Businesses That Suffer the Most From Lack of Power

1. Manufacturing

Automated machinery requires a steady power source to produce vehicles, electronics, and general goods. Power outages can completely shut down a manufacturing plant. If employees also can’t access online logistics and tracking software, it can also interrupt the supply chain, impacting everyone from suppliers and transport to the end consumer. A generator can be invaluable if the power shuts down and is one of the best long-term investments you can make.

2. Health Care

generatorHospitals and other health care centers require Internet access to explore and update patient records. They also need the power to keep equipment on. This can range from diagnostic MRI and CT scan machines to health monitoring devices. There can be severe and immediate consequences if a backup generator isn’t in place, many of which will impact patients’ well-being.

3. Food Establishments

Everything from your neighborhood grocery store to your favorite restaurant or pharmacy requires power to keep perishable items fresh. Countless dollars can be lost as inventory spoils during a power outage. A commercial generator will immediately restore power if it’s lost, so the downtime can't negatively affect the inventory.
