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.

What is a three-pole contactor and what is it used for?

The three-pole contactor is a crucial safety device in power generators, serving as an electromechanical solution for controlling loads in multi-phase power circuits. It consists of three power terminals, a control coil, auxiliary contacts, and a core…

How to Choose a Temporary Power Supplier

Choosing a temporary power supplier requires careful analysis of several factors. It’s essential to check for 24/7 availability, specialized technical support, equipment quality, and offered warranties. Companies providing new power generators can offer fuel savings. It’s also important to verify maintenance policies, replacement options, and contractual coverage against accidents and theft.

Challenges in Hiring Temporary Power

Hiring temporary power has become strategic for companies across all sectors and sizes, whether for isolated areas, backup, cost reduction during peak hours, or scheduled maintenance. It’s essential to choose a company with recognition, a qualified team, and 24-hour service. The rental company should assess the demand and offer customized solutions to ensure a continuous and safe power supply.

What is the function of the transfer switch in a generator?

The automatic transfer switch is an essential device in generators that acts as a switch between two power sources. It is activated only when the public supply is interrupted, ensuring a continuous electricity supply. There are three types: open transition (for emergencies), temporary (inductive loads), and closed (critical locations like hospitals and data centers that cannot…

Energy Demand and Supply for 2016

The energy sector in 2016 was impacted by the economic slowdown, with estimated consumption growing only 1% according to ONS/EPE. Demand remained below 2014 levels. In the North region, thermal power generation prevails with a focus on greater efficiency and a shift to the Independent Power Producer (IPP) model to reduce costs and emissions. The…

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.

Energy demands in retail

Brazilian retail anticipates recovery with the injection of R$ 200 billion from the 13th salary, representing 3% of GDP according to DIEESE. The sector faces energy challenges due to the tropical climate that requires constant air conditioning, especially with tariff flags that increase energy costs. The solution is the adoption of temporary energy during peak hours, potentially saving up to 30% on electricity costs.

What is Amperage: Understand Its Importance!

Tecnogera technician wearing gloves and goggles measures amperage on a cable at the panel, with a green generator in the background.

The ampere is the fundamental unit in the International System that measures the amount of electrical charge. Amperage is crucial for the energy efficiency of household devices and equipment like generators. It determines the suitability of electricity for the equipment’s needs and prevents overheating and short circuits through breakers and fuses. Higher amperage also means higher energy consumption, which is important for cost control.

What are wind turbine rotors and what types are there?

The wind turbine rotor is an essential component of turbines that convert the wind’s kinetic energy into electricity. Comprising blades, a hub, and control mechanisms, it can have a vertical or horizontal axis. Vertical types include Savonius (efficient in low winds) and Darrieus. Horizontal types are more efficient, with three-blade models offering the best cost-effectiveness, achieving 45% efficiency in strong winds and generating up to 5…
