Imagine the following scene: an important soccer match is about to start when suddenly all the lights go out. How would the fans, players, and media crew at the venue feel? To prevent this kind of situation, power generators are commonly used in soccer stadiums.

During the 2014 World Cup, for instance, generators were installed in all stadiums hosting games. However, there have been instances where this precaution was not taken, leading to unexpected power outages that resulted in embarrassment and game cancellations.

In 2012, the Centenario stadium in Argentina was set to host a match between the Brazilian and Argentine teams when a blackout occurred. After more than an hour of waiting, the match was canceled.

Problems that can lead to power outages include storms, accidents, high winds, or supply issues from the electric company.

Additionally, since stadiums require significant lighting, issues with the electrical grid can cause overloads.

For these reasons, generator rental is highly recommended.

With a wide range of power options, generators can be perfectly adapted to the stadium’s size. Besides equipment rental, a specialized technical team is also provided, ready to respond if any issues arise. This team conducts a preliminary study of the stadium’s proposal and characteristics, ensuring the rented equipment meets the venue’s needs.
