Load bank for testing diesel turbo generators
The load bank for testing diesel turbo generators is a high-standard system that prevents issues related to the activation of the power generator equipment. This device can be reactive or resistive, capable of performing quality tests on power sources with complete safety and without compromising electrical voltage. The equipment is essential for verifying the safety and performance of turbo generators, conducting precise measurements of power, voltage, current, and other critical parameters.
Rainy Season and Power Supply Failures
After the 2015 water crisis, 2016 saw an increase in rainfall. Despite improvements in reservoir levels, some regions, like the Northeast, have accumulated volumes below expectations, and the supply crisis is not averted.
Temporary Power Solutions in Malls Generate Savings
A mall in the southern region significantly reduced energy costs by using temporary power during its transition to the free market. With a monthly bill of R$ 880,000 (R$ 200,000 just during peak hours), the facility installed three generators plus one stand-by generating 2.5 MW. The result was a reduction in peak hour costs from R$ 200,000 to R$ 84,500, plus R$ 88,000 in diesel, totaling a 14% savings in total energy costs.
Temporary Power in the Mining Sector
The mining sector continues to hold a prominent position among the most important industries in the nation. In 2015, according to industry data, the export volume of iron ore alone exceeded 340 million tons. Temporary power is a strategic component for enabling the operation of an extraction mine, providing energy for heavy machinery, ventilation systems, security alarms, and lighting in often remote and hard-to-reach areas.
The Advantages of Temporary Power in Brazil
In 2015, the water crisis and tariff flags increased energy costs, making temporary power through generator rental essential for businesses. Benefits include up to a 30% reduction in peak hour expenses and transferring maintenance responsibility to rental companies. According to ABIMAQ, inquiries about generators increased by 40% and sales by 12%. Demand remains high even with improvements in the water scenario.
40 kVA Power Generator – Which industries use it?
The 40 kVA power generator is widely used in the telecommunications sector to ensure a continuous power supply. It’s a robust piece of equipment that provides a quick response within minutes during public grid failures, preventing losses for companies and clients. Tecnogera offers diesel-powered generators ranging from 25 to 60 kVA, with manual transfer and options for enclosed or silenced units.
Why are electricity bills rising so much in 2015?
The projected 51.7% increase in 2015 is due to multiple factors: a consumption boost in 2013 (law 12.783 reduced bills by 20%), droughts forcing the use of more expensive thermoelectric plants, billion-dollar loans to distributors, the end of the R$ 9 billion transfer to CDE (shifting costs to consumers), extraordinary tariff reviews, implementation of tariff flags, and delays in projects like Belo Monte. For large consumers with time-of-use tariffs, self-generation with diesel has become attractive during peak hours.
How does a power generator work?
A power generator is an essential piece of equipment that meets energy needs during power grid failures, serving as a primary or backup source. It offers advantages in security (ensuring operational continuity and alarm systems), agility (quick automatic response), and versatility (applicable in hospitals, industries, airports, events). To choose the right one, consider emergency or continuous use, available physical space, access to the power grid, and fuel type (diesel or gasoline). Tecnogera offers customized TurnKey solutions.
What is the fuel consumption of a diesel power generator?
Diesel generators provide a rapid response to restore power during distribution failures, making them essential for hospitals, supermarkets, industries, and events. Consumption varies with power output: a 157-170 kVA generator with a 290-liter tank operates for 6 continuous hours, consuming 40 liters of diesel per hour. Tecnogera offers generator rental with various power outputs to meet diverse energy needs.
Generator 450 – discover where it can be used
The 450 KVA power generator is a large model recommended for the industrial sector, especially the food and beverage industry. It is also used in large events and shows that require equipment like high-definition screens, powerful sound systems, and climate control. It offers immediate response and total security, keeping the location always illuminated regardless of fluctuations in the power grid.
