What Types of Facilities Benefit from Used Commercial Generators?
As mentioned in a previous blog, according to the 2012 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS), hospitals accounted for less than 1% of all commercial buildings. Yet, they consumed 4.3% of the total delivered energy used in the commercial sector. In addition to hospitals, data centers and construction sites also use a great deal of energy. If you’re interested in how each of these facilities could benefit from quality used commercial generators, please read on!
Data Centers
First, housing all of those interconnected computer systems can consume a great deal of energy. Imagine running a data center without a reliable backup energy source. One power surge or outage could cost terabytes of data and thousands of dollars. Possessing a top-of-the-line used commercial generator provides just one crucial benefit to data centers.
Another potential benefit of a used commercial generator for a data center is added output. If a data center undertakes a project which requires greater energy output, renting used commercial generators can be a great way to provide for that need. And do so without putting up a pretty penny!
Construction Sites
Working on a construction site is tough work. Between labor and union costs, saving money where you can is a high priority. With a used commercial generator, you can do just that. And you can do it without sacrificing quality. At Woodstock Power, construction sites often purchase or rent used commercial generators, sometimes renting for even over a year. This way they can use the money they saved on other important investments.
In addition, sometimes construction sites need another generator for a unique job or greater output for a short period of time. Renting a used commercial generator can be the best way to meet this application without pulling out big bucks.
Hospitals
Federal law requires hospitals to have ready backup power. After all, few things are more unthinkable than a hospital losing power in the middle of a crisis. Here at Woodstock Power, we carry several used commercial generators that meet or exceed all legal requirements.
Second, hospitals can also benefit from used commercial generators if their current generator is undergoing maintenance. Sometimes large commercial units require shut off for extended periods in order to do repairs safely. Yet hospitals still need to operate smoothly. What better way to maintain power at little cost than with a used commercial generator?
While these are a few of the industries that have been studied to consume a great deal of energy, there are many industries that leverage the use of commercial generators.
