In some places with unreliable power it is. It’s not a third world problem either. I have worked in parts of Australia where power is unreliable because you are in the middle of nowhere and you are the end of the power line.

Can’t you manage it with a battery and wind/solar?

    Then you might consider a big enough battery if that’s not in MWhs. You’d charge it during night perhaps and switch to it when needed?
