Hurricane Season

The electricity in your business just went out and now you find yourself at the mercy of your local energy provider to fix the connection. Knowing that you're one of hundreds or thousands of businesses without power, how quickly will you be ready for business?

Prepare Now for the Unexpected

Now is the time for you to perform an assessment of your company's disaster recovery plan. As a business owner, or someone responsible for sustaining a company's business in the event of a disaster, ask yourself the following questions:

• Does my business operate without power?
• Does my product expire without electricity?
• Will my phones, computers, Internet access work?
• Do I have a business continuity plan?

Once you have determined you need a generator, answer the following questions:

• How much power (or KW) do I need?
• Do I need a diesel or natural gas generator?
• Where do I install the generator on my property?
• Do I need a permanent or a temporary installation of the generator?
• What permit(s) is/are required for the presence of my generator?
• Will I need an automatic or a manual transfer switch?

Depco's Experience with Hurricanes

When Hurricane Ike hit Southeast Texas last year, it brought life to a stop. Businesses and schools were shut down for weeks, gas was unavailable and food was hard to find. During this time, Depco shipped 145 generators—equal to 22794 KW of power—to businesses across the Gulf Coast. Helping companies get back online and functional was our top priority.
