Back in the 80's I worked for 2 different companies, each at an opposite end an office park about a mile apart. The first company I worked for had big turbines that they turned on whenever a storm came through, so the computer room was powered by the turbines. They didn't have any batteries. The 2nd company I worked for after I left the 1st one had a huge room full of batteries, but no turbine generator. I always thought that it was amazing that each had half of the full UPS system.
