How To Pay For Equipment and Service
THE CONCERN
Can I Afford This?
It is easy to afford by selecting Backup Power-as-a-Service: Rather than investing capital upfront, Backup Power-as-a-Service provides everything for a low monthly fee. Other benefits include: a) you are not responsible for service and maintenance, b) all regulatory and utility filings, permitting and emissions are handled by your service provider, and best of all, c) the service provider monetizes the generator by selling services to the grid and shares those savings with you. For customers in areas with high demand charges or high price volatility, the shared savings can completely offset the monthly payment.

How Much Does It Cost To Run The Generator?
This depends on the fuel type and price, as well as the generator’s efficiency. As a very rough rule of thumb, a natural gas generator will cost between 8- and 12-cents per kWh, and a diesel generator will cost between 18- and 25-cents per kWh.
