Generators are the primary solution for power outages offered to the residential market, but they present significant disadvantages. Building type, local permitting process, and noise and emission considerations can all discourage customers from installing a combustion engine in their backyards.

The Quiet, Easy Alternative
For those customers looking for an alternative, Gaia offers the PowerTower – the first whole-home battery-based backup system for residences and businesses. The PowerTower continuously monitors the electricity coming into the site, and eliminates any surges, sags, or gaps in the power supply. Critical circuits stay up during outages, and sensitive electronic systems remain protected. Best of all, it does all of this instantly, automatically and completely quietly, without any supervision or intervention needed by the owner.

Improve Generator Efficiency
For those customers who already have a generator, or are considering a hybrid solution, the PowerTower still presents significant advantages. When coupled with a generator, the PowerTower dramatically increases the generator efficiency. The resulting benefits include:

• Reducing the size of the generator required while still providing the power levels needed
• Extending the life of the fuel supply
• Improving power quality, protecting sensitive electronics
• Eliminating gaps in startup time

Modular for Any Installation Size  
The PowerTower for Backup is Gaia's standard unit, and it provides the reliability, ease of installation and affordability that makes it the best solution in backup power protection.

The unit can be sized to provide from 2.5kW to 11.0kW of continuous power with as much energy storage as needed in order to power circuits through any power event. Larger systems for larger businesses are also available.

All Backup units arrive ready to accept the grid as well as any future alternative power sources such as solar cells, and all Backup units accept power input from generators of any size, making it easy to charge the batteries for outages of several days or more.  

The PowerTower for Backup is compatible with a wide range of electrical service, from 60A to 300A+ and can be configured for either 120V or 240V output. 3-phase power models are also available.
