Home Backup Power & Energy Resilience
for Ontario Homeowners

Quick Answer: For most Ontario homeowners, a dual-fuel portable generator ($800–$2,000) covers essentials during outages. For whole-home automatic backup, a standby propane generator ($8,000–$15,000 installed) is the gold standard. Battery systems like the Tesla Powerwall work best paired with solar for short outages.
