Fix Your Generator and Save Money

In an emergency, companies regularly look for backup power systems to keep their facilities running in any situation. In the case of hospitals, utilities, industrial, transportation and a host of other industries, energy generation can become a critical resource. The systems relied upon to deliver crucial energy may be expensive, and as a result, may be undersized or portable when each should be purposed for a critical business application.

Often satisfied by a diesel power generator, essential power requirements can be provided with portable units. The value of portability is that it can be utilized in many different cases rather than a single purpose. A portable unit may also save money since a one-size -fits-all mentality can be employed on occasion.

A quality diesel generator sized for a specific purpose may actually save a company money for backup and critical needs rather than simply escalate costs. Systems that are not designed for such purposes and well maintained often experience reliability problems when called into service. The costs of upgrading these systems to augment a few metrics of power are far more expensive per kilowatt than purchasing a system at the correct power rating. Engine reliability is another component of quality, and generators that are not installed per design specifications may experience failures at startup or other times that drastically reduce reliability.

Curbing emissions is a good reason to consider switching from diesel generators to an electric generator. EPA and Air Quality regulations dictate rules for the amount of emissions for such systems in order to reduce environmental impacts. The hours of operation and duration of operations are significantly expanded for electric units over diesel engines. These units can be sized to power a whole facility or just enough to deliver power for all the tasks at a job site. The efficiency of these Trailer Mounted Generators is exceptional, providing power in ranges from 100 to 1000 KvW.
