Budget-Friendly Backup Power
Posted on Sep 04, 2026 at 1:15 PM
When power outages strike, having a reliable and easy-to-use backup solution can make all the difference. Tri-County EMC, in partnership with Gresco Utility Supply, offers GenerLink, a safe, affordable way to restore power using a portable generator without the cost or commitment of a permanent standby system.
Designed to connect directly to a home’s electrical system, GenerLink allows electricity to be restored in minutes while keeping essential systems like well pumps, refridgerators, and security systems running smoothly during outages.
GenerLink is engineered with safety and reliability in mind. The system prevents dangerous backfeeding, helping protect both homeowners and utility lineworkers, and includes whole-home surge protection for added peace of mind. Its weather-resistant design makes it suitable for outdoor use, and a built-in green indicator light lets homeowners know exactly when utility power has been restored—eliminating guesswork during outage recovery.
Tri-County EMC is offering free installation for residential members with flexible installation options for a wide range of homes. With utility approval, it can be installed behind the electric meter. It may also be installed by a licensed electrician in a standalone meter panel located downstream from the utility meter.
Our goal is to provide you, our members, with safe and reliable power. But, we can’t control Mother Nature. We are excited to partner with Gresco and give our members a budget-friendly backup power solution for their homes in the event of an outage.
