Using Gasless Generators from Healthcare to Residential

We’ve been experiencing historic extreme weather during the winter and summer seasons a lot lately. News about the power grid shutting off leaving thousands or millions of people without electricity either in heat or cold were widely reported. There’s also the unprecedented rise of gas prices that affected everyone’s wallet.

Healthcare: Taking Advantage of the Sun’s Full Potential

It is during these extreme situations that you realize just how far we’ve come when it comes to power. Because there would be establishments, buildings, and hospitals that can still operate because they have generators with them.

Most of these places are likely to use gas generators. But there is one clinic in Hollister, California that is 100% powered by solar energy. This is a result after its chief executive, Rosa Vivian Fernandez, visited Puerto Rico and saw the devastation of Hurricane Maria on the island in 2017.

Healthcare facilities were heavily affected. But for health centers that survived, they still went down because there was no electricity. They were unable to provide lifesaving procedures to those who needed them. 

Knowing that this is likely to happen to her clinic, Fernandez decided to take action to ensure they can still help their community when extreme situations arise.

This is not the first time that the healthcare industry has taken advantage of the sun’s gift. The Red Cross organization has been using it during its outreach operations in areas where there’s no power. Then in 2017, an international coalition of medical organizations and NGOs started the operation of a hospital that is powered by solar panels alongside diesel generators as part of their initiative in Syria.

Growth in Gasless Generator Usage in Residential Areas in the U.S.

A ton of money was spent to build solar energy-efficient hospitals but it doesn’t have to be for household use.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) has shown a rise in residential solar power installations. It grew by 34% from 2020 to 2021. This is equivalent to 2.9 gigawatts in 2020 to 3.9 gigawatts in 2021. 

The Solar Energy Industries Association has also noted in the second quarter of 2022 another growth in residential solar sets for the fifth consecutive quarterly period. 

This is because more and more companies are offering solar-powered generators. An example of this is Nature’s Generator Elite 3600W. It’s exactly the perfect size for home use.

This gasless generator is unlike any of its diesel-powered counterparts as it is noiseless. It is also odorless and doesn’t release any toxic gases that can be harmful to one’s health. 

Not to mention the fact that it is quite low maintenance. You just have to make sure that either it is recharged every four months when not in used or kept plugged in so it is ready to be used whenever there’s a power outage. 

And, since it doesn’t rely on any kind of gas product to run, you don’t have to think about spending money to fill it up when using it. You have Mother Earth’s sustainable gift to power it through the sun or wind. So, it is quite a money saver. 

It can power appliances you deemed essential during power outages. It can recharge a smartphone more than 60 times. It can also power your refrigerator for at least 8-12 hours depending on the size. And, if you needed light, this solar-powered generator can supply an LED light bulb with at least 50+ hours of energy. 

This gasless generator can be powered up by the wind and the sun.

How does it work? 

But how can the wind and the sun provide energy? 

For the sun, it works by collecting solar energy through a solar panel which is then converted to electrical energy. The collected solar energy is stored in the generator’s battery which can be used to run your household appliances when the need arises. 

The wind energy comes in the clutch when there’s no sun. You can also add two 150-watt wind turbines to recharge your portable generator when the sun is hiding. And, it can also be charged via AC which can take 10 to 15 hours, which is similar to when charging using solar panels. As for wind energy, charging time can vary depending on the wind speed for the day. 

What is good about Nature’s generator is that you can customize it to fit your needs. You can increase and expand its capacity to eliminate any disadvantages that stop you from using it to its full potential. It has an easy-to-use interface so operating it is quite quick. Not to mention the fact that you can carry it around whenever and wherever easily because of its portable weight and size. 

In summary, Nature’s gasless generator provides the following benefits to its users: 

• Doesn’t use fuel to power up so it is eco-friendly and money saver 
• Doesn’t emit toxic fumes and can be used indoors 
• Easy and convenient to use 
• Portability 

But, best of all, having one provides that sense of security and peace. That blanket of safety eases your mind during emergency situations. You don’t have to worry for a while when it comes to your and your family’s comfort. You can take your time in making decisions on what’s the best move to do next because you still have a reliable source of power besides the grid. 

Conclusion

So, in conclusion, the 21st century has brought extreme weather phenomenon and situation that affects our daily living and comfort. But it has also brought knowledge and awareness to humankind. 

And, one of those is knowing how our actions and inventions can damage our environment and cause irreversible consequences. So, take advantage of these advances and take into having a gasless generator when you’re renovating or building your own home.

Some of the things to consider when looking for a good gasless generator are its versatility, power output, capacity, charging options, battery type, warranty, and size and weight. But if you want to know more about these things, you can reach out to us anytime here, and we’ll assist you further.
