Becoming Grid Independent with Savant Power

In 2023, the New York Times reported a startling fact regarding the power that sustains us. From 2010 to 2021, there were almost 990 weather-related power outages in the U.S. The previous 11 years saw less than half that number. Why?

Extreme weather and an aging power grid are the sources of the increasing power outages witnessed nationwide. Intense heat waves and cold spells have people adjusting their thermostats, putting pressure and increasing demands on a power grid designed for far less extremes. Storms are becoming more intense, and wildfires are becoming more severe. 

We face a changing world and climate that an aging power grid can't keep up with. According to The Wilson Quarterly, 75% of power transmission lines and transformers are at least 25 years old, with many constructed in the 1960s.

The result is blackouts and storms that lay claim to some of the worst natural disasters in history. One example is the storm that ravaged Texas on February 11, 2021. By its end, the death toll reached 246, with two-thirds related to hypothermia.  

As outages become more severe, people turn to backup power, such as generators, to help them get through. Despite the increasing need, fewer than 6% of homes in the U.S. have a standby generator. 

Today, however, many homeowners are looking for more than backup power. They're searching for ways to cut their carbon emissions, minimize their dependence on the grid, and reduce their electric bills. 

And that's where Savant Power comes in.

Redefining Ease, Beauty, and Entertainment

While homeowners throughout Seattle, WA, enjoy what many would call a luxurious lifestyle, some have yet to adopt the technology that transforms the everyday into the extraordinary. It’s called home automation, and it provides unprecedented ease of living, enhanced beauty, and unrivaled home entertainment.

So, why the hesitation? For some, there is growing uncertainty in technology due to its repeated unkept promise that it will make life easier. In many ways, of course, it has. In other ways, however, it seems to have muddied the waters, requiring more time to accomplish less. Today, smartphone owners use about ten apps every day. If you’ve tip-toed into the sea of smart devices, you may have an app to control each one, from lights to security cameras, door locks, and music devices. 

Dealing with different apps and devices quickly turns from ease and fascination to frustration. Fortunately, there is a better way. And it’s called a home automation system.
