I vote for battery backup with solar charging, rather than a gas generator. You could use it off of 12v, or you could attach an inverter and use it to power your fridge when the power is off and the sump pump is not needed. You could probably get a good setup with an auto transfer switch with a couple panels, battery and inverter for a couple thousand dollars. But what do I know, I don't have a basement. I do have solar though, with battery back-up and an auto transfer switch that powers critical loads.
