If you're running a business that heavily relies on power to operate, purchasing a generator is also a sensible investment. In a permanent installation, the availability of backup power is not controlled by a rental contract. This means you won't have to rely on local rental generators which may not be available during peak rental times and emergencies. Moreover, you get an extra level of insurance you won't get from a diesel generator hire. Owning a diesel generator means you can keep your operation running smoothly without interruption, even when the main grid goes out. This allows you to maintain a competitive advantage while having a more economical and convenient power solution.
