The commercial generator is an essential aspect for multiple companies across several industries. Having an on-site generator can be a lifesaver amidst power outages or blackouts. Corbin Electrical Services, Inc. supplies commercial generators to businesses throughout New Jersey and here describes which organizations will find this equipment most advantageous to their daily operations.
Which Business Should Consider a Commercial Generator?
From food to healthcare, businesses in many sectors should consider investing in a generator to safeguard their electrical power and performance. These systems also help decrease the chances of long-term electrical outages. The following are some specific industries that often rely on commercial generators for power:
Medical and Health Facilities
Power access is fundamental at medical and healthcare facilities. As power grids age in the United States and fail against increasingly severe weather, it is critical that medical buildings, such as hospitals, clinics, assisted living facilities, and emergency response centers have a commercial generator for reliable power, 24/7.
Medical practitioners depend on resuscitators, X-ray machines, and lights to take care of their patients, and all these tools require electricity. A permanent generator can prevent any gaps in power access.
Food and Beverage Facilities and Factories
No one likes spoiled food or losing money. However, when a power outage hits a restaurant, food processing plant, or even a corner store, these could be adverse effects. Billions of dollars in perishable food and beverages, sales, and productivity are lost when food and agriculture facilities lose power, even for a short time.
These industries can benefit significantly from permanent generators. Some government agencies even recommend that restaurants install a commercial generator to prevent catastrophic spoilage during an outage.
Heavy Industry Factories
Factories can quickly lose millions of dollars in productivity when their power goes out. In addition, factory power outages can cause major health problems for employees on-site and in surrounding communities. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reports that about 240 chemical-related incidents occurred in the United States due to factory power outages in the year 2000.
A single situation in Louisiana left 29 employees with chemical injuries during the start-up phase of an unexpected electrical outage. In California, nearly 100 community members had to seek medical attention when another chemical factory rebooted after a rolling blackout. On-site commercial generators provide default energy and electricity to lessen these health risks.
Commercial Properties
Commercial properties, from condominiums to offices and megastores, can greatly benefit from an on-site generator. Tenants living and working in these spaces require 24/7 energy and air quality control. Generators provide this reliable service and peace of mind in case of inclement weather or natural disaster. They also enhance a property owner’s reputation for maintaining their buildings and protecting their investments.
Mass Transit
Increasingly, climate change is creating severe and volatile weather patterns. Mass transit hubs and stations, such as airports, and bus and train stations, are some of the first facilities affected by power outages caused by major storms and natural disasters.
As a result, permanent generators are becoming critical to public transit, especially air operations. Without generators at these transportation hubs, thousands of people can become stuck or stranded, affecting everything from their business to personal appointments. In addition, bus and train terminals are becoming more dependent on electric vehicles and also need a strong electrical backup when the power goes out.
