Why backup power is important?
The prevalence of unscheduled power outages, often due to the unreliability or maintenance demands of the electricity grid in South Africa, is placing pressure on organisations to be prepared for these increasingly regular occurrences. Companies that rely on electrical power for productivity, profit and security are hard hit by power failures. Without power, till islands are inoperable, lighting and security systems fail.
Unfortunately, many companies are ill-equipped to deal with a sustained power outage. There are significant gaps between what they have and what they need in terms of backup or emergency power systems. An extended power blackout could halt a commercial facility’s operations and have a long-term negative effect on its business.
