    The Benefits of Portable Solar Generators for Cities

    Apac CIO Outlook | Wednesday, June 22, 2022

    Today’s city planners and similar authorities pursue numerous options to save energy. However, it’s also necessary to investigate the most feasible ways to produce it. An unexpected power outage could wreak havoc in a city, but backup electricity systems show preparedness. Portable solar generators are viable options.

    FREMONT, CA: European Union has a solar capacity of 1,133 watts per person, which is almost three solar panels. Portable solar generators can supplement a city's overall solar energy. Such solutions are also useful when a city holds events that will significantly increase the city's reliance on electricity. Investing in portable generators could be one of the preparations for those events. The technology could be especially useful in settings like festival campgrounds and staff check-in areas. In 2019, Glastonbury, England, used numerous environmentally friendly choices, including solar generators. According to estimates, the solutions would save more than 200 million metric tonnes of CO2 when compared to diesel generators. Portable solar generators are insufficient to provide a city's entire renewable energy need. It can, however, provide more flexibility and assist the city in increasing its reliance on solar energy.

    Whole-house generators are one of the most proactive ways for residents to prepare for possible blackouts. They enable patients to continue utilising electrically powered medical equipment while also performing other critical tasks, such as preventing the spoilage of refrigerated food. Portable solar generators, on the other hand, are a valuable supplement to a household's needs, especially when whole-house generators are not immediately available. Following particularly harsh winter storms in the area, there was a spike in demand. In the last ten years, the solar energy industry has created almost a quarter-million jobs. However, in areas of growing demand, the sector will continue to feel the sting of rapid demand. Portable solar generators may not be sufficient to power all of a home's needs. It may, however, be a viable solution for persons who require electricity for survival. One of the main advantages is that setting up and operating a portable solar generator is usually not a huge undertaking. Portable solar generators can be taken anywhere there is a need. To bridge the gap, city officials might provide portable generators to households who can't wait for a more robust option.

    Portable solar generators can be game-changers in cities where citizens are unable to rely on other sources of power. On one occasion, a millionaire couple committed up to USD 12 million to areas in Australia when bushfires or floods made it impossible to use the electricity infrastructure. Portable solar panels and battery arrays were the focus of the duo's research. Solar-powered portable generators, on the other hand, may easily fit into their plans. These examples demonstrate how portable solar generators can be used to generate power in a variety of situations. City officials that invest in such technology can demonstrate to current and prospective inhabitants that they have carefully considered how to supply reliable, environmentally friendly energy sources.
