Thanks so much for joining us for this episode of the show. And welcome to The Next Generation of Energy brought to you by the folks at RoseWater Energy. Listen to hear more about the different types of power backups for the home. This can be alleviated with a power conditioning device, according to Piccirilli. Generators also don’t produce enough power for a home because homeowners don’t choose a device robust enough for their homes. “But, a generator will back up your home for as long as you have fuel, so for a long-term power backup, it is a very good option. “There is no way for a generator to anticipate that load, so it can create power anomalies through sags and surges,” Piccirilli said. When the air conditioner gets turned off, the generator is still producing the same amount of energy, and that creates a spike.

What it can’t do is deal with a load change, so if an air conditioner gets turned on, the generator will sag. There is a motor that turns and puts out continuous voltage. A generator is a device used for power backup in a home and is the same type of device utility companies use to provide energy to the entire country. It’s pretty obvious, but there are significant differences between generators, solar panels and battery backups. Giving insights to host Tyler Kern on this episode of The Next Generation of Energy by RoseWater Energy is Joe Piccirilli, CEO, RoseWater Energy. We’re going to discuss the nuances of all of them and some of the positives and some of the negatives. Today, we’re taking a look at several backup energy options, like generators, solar panels and other tools. With these dangers on the horizon, it’s essential to have a backup option for your home or business. There are a lot of power issues popping up on the grid, including rolling brownouts and blackouts, storms and outages.
