ipsumWhat will an emergency backup power system look like and be capable of 30 years from now? While no one knows for certain, it may look a lot like the system at Rex Hospital in North Carolina. The hospital’s recently upgraded backup power system was designed to ensure the seamless delivery of both normal and emergency power to all loads… today and for the next 30 years.
Rated one of the top 100 U.S. hospitals by Becker’s Hospital Review in 2012, the 660-bed flagship of the not-for-profit Rex Healthcare treats nearly 34,000 inpatients every year. The staff includes more than 1,100 physicians and 1,700 nurses, who also provide services at 13 affiliated clinics and other facilities throughout Raleigh and the surrounding Wake County.
