How to Choose the Right Generator for Your Business
·
May 27, 2026
Power outages are a reality for businesses across Uganda. A generator is not just a backup — for many businesses, it is the lifeline that keeps operations running.
Step 1: Calculate Your Power Needs
Add up the wattage of all equipment you need to run simultaneously. Multiply by 1.25 to get your minimum generator size.
Step 2: Diesel vs Petrol
Diesel generators are more fuel-efficient and last longer under continuous load. For daily use, diesel is almost always the better choice.
Step 3: Silent vs Open Frame
Silent generators run at under 68 dB. Open frame generators are cheaper but louder, better suited for construction sites.
