Last week, we bought a gasoline generator for our K1 office (Kyiv) to ensure steady operation regardless of circumstance. Our foreman invited electricians and they rewired our electrical panel to include an automatic generator/city switch for electricity.
Now we have a specific algorithm for blackouts:
- When there is no electricity for a relatively short time, first we use EcoFlow battery and a dedicated optic cable internet provider which works during most outages.
- If there is no electricity for more than 4 hours, we connect the generator and StarLink as a reserve option.
We have all bases covered, so we can work without any disruptions both during scheduled 2-4 hour rolling blackouts or autonomously by alternating between using EcoFlow battery and a generator to power the office and charge the EcoFlow battery.
There are no emergencies for us, just organizational issues to solve so we can continue our work on schedule.
