It’s pretty common in developing countries. Growing up in India, we had frequent power cuts (not too bad as some other places, maybe like 30 mins in a day). So having backup batteries were pretty common. They’re called inverters colloquially.
We rarely have power cuts nowadays, but they’re still useful during storms and such.
