Dozens of public housing apartments will get plug-in induction ranges as part of the initiative, which aims to eventually shift 10,000 NYCHA homes off the use of polluting fossil fuel appliances.
Outside of natural disasters, how often is the power out longer than 20 minutes? My last power outage was due to a major car wreck and it wasn’t out much longer than an hour.
Depends on where you live. California in summer, and most places where you have trees+snow will get you outages. The rise of data centers using power scoped for residential areas is also likely to have impacts.
I would rather a house battery instead of a stove battery. At least for the house you could benefit from cheap night time tariffs. Power during power cuts is a nice bonus.
