As climate change continues to spark major weather events, an increase in the number of power outages around the world is expected. In fact, weather-related events, such as hurricanes and wildfires spread because of droughts, caused 83% of all reported power outages between 2000 and 2021. What’s more, the number of reported power outages over the past decade has increased 64% from the previous decade. These power outages make it difficult for the 58% of Americans who still work from home at least one day a week to complete their tasks. Small businesses without power typically lose a median cost of $12,500 a day.

With a rise in power outages as well as the vast number of people who still work remotely at least part time, the need for home and small business standby generators is high. This need is why it’s a great time to explore becoming a Cummins dealer. When you become a Cummins dealer, you become partnered with a brand synonymous with power and reliability.
