Backup power for a town built around a working port
Dunedin's downtown and waterfront district grew up around a working harbor after the town's 1899 incorporation, a commercial center for citrus, cotton, and boatbuilding decades before modern electrical infrastructure existed. Older wiring in that historic core often needs assessment before a generator is added, since the panel and service line may not match a home's current electrical load.
Coastal storm exposure and outage duration
Dunedin's waterfront position exposes it to the same storm pattern that affected the rest of coastal Pinellas County in 2024 — Helene's surge in September and Milton's wind and rain two weeks later — with downed lines and debris leaving roads impassable countywide after both storms. Planning a generator's fuel supply and run time around a multi-day outage, not just a few hours, reflects that recent storm history.
