Share
Power Backup Choices in 2025
With growing concerns over electricity reliability and rising energy costs, more people are looking for long-term backup solutions. At Vigood Solartek, we help our customers choose between traditional generators and modern solar energy storage systems.
Generators vs. Energy Storage: A Detailed Comparison
1. How They Work
Generators use fossil fuels like diesel or petrol to generate electricity during outages.
Solar Energy Storage Systems store excess power from solar panels and release it when needed.
2. Feature Comparison Table
| Feature | Generator | Solar Energy Storage System |
|---|---|---|
| Power Source | Diesel, Petrol | Solar energy |
| Fuel Cost | High and recurring | Zero fuel cost |
| Maintenance | Frequent service required | Minimal maintenance |
