Discover how to minimize losses with temporary power generators

Temporary power generators are high-performance equipment for reliable and safe supply. They minimize losses due to power outages, protecting medications, food, and critical information. They offer 10-15% savings on bills, reaching up to 35% during peak hours. Main fuels: diesel for high power and gasoline for smaller demands. Various applications in events, hospitals, businesses, and wind farms.

How to choose the best power generator for your business

Choosing generators requires careful analysis: primary or backup source, operating time (8/12/24h), interruption tolerance, types of electrical loads (lighting, HVAC, motors, ovens, refrigeration). Automatic transfer in 10-15 seconds. Sizing based on the company’s specific equipment. Maintenance proportional to engine hours. Tecnogera offers customized solutions.

Temporary Power and Climate Control in the Food Industry

The food sector grew by 2.08% in 2018, totaling R$ 656 billion in revenue. Industries require controlled climate conditions for perishable preservation and temperature control for products like chocolate. Tecnogera provided a solution for Danone’s Distribution Center with a 1400 kVA power generator, 3,200A transfer switch, and 1,500m of cables. Energy security prevents losses in the food production chain.

Power Generators for Businesses: How Temporary Power Can Be a Competitive Edge

Four mobile aerial work platforms, painted in vibrant green with the Tecnogera logo and phone number, are parked side by side on a concrete floor at night, ready to clean the facade. In the background, a few trees appear under the dark sky.

ONS recorded energy consumption records in January due to the heatwave. Six strategic situations where generators provide a competitive advantage: preventing outages, scheduled shutdowns, remote areas, consumption peaks, events, and construction. Temporary power prevents production losses and offers a market edge.

The Importance of Load Banks for the Data Center Market

The largest data center in the world spans 102,000 m² in Chicago (one of 1,500 in the U.S.). Data centers require uninterrupted power for processing, storage, lighting, and constant climate control. Load banks are essential during commissioning, testing generators, transformers, UPS, batteries, air conditioning systems, and other critical equipment. Tecnogera supplied 3 MVA of power and 6000 MW in load banks for the ODATA data center (R$ 400 million) in Santana de Parnaíba. The Latin American market moved US$ 2.87 billion in 2017 (Brazil: 47.6%), with projections reaching US$ 4.37 billion by 2021, generating high demand for temporary power.

Construction Industry Shows Signs of Recovery and Starts the Year with Optimism

After challenging years (2017-2018), the construction industry is showing signs of recovery. A study by FGV/ABRAMAT indicates that 73% of materials industries plan to invest in the next 12 months, focusing on modernization and capacity expansion. The Confidence Index (Icei-Construção) reached 63.7 points, above the historical average of 53.1. For the first time since 2014, business owners are showing confidence. Tecnogera has seen an increase in demand since October 2018. Projects can last 2-5 years, requiring anything from single generators to mini power plants.

Low reservoir levels and demands for temporary energy

The reservoirs of hydroelectric plants maintain critical levels: Northeast at 34.5% (historical average 50.9%) and Southeast/Central-West at 33.57% (historical average 57.5%). In Bahia, 180 municipalities are in emergency due to drought, affecting 4 million people. Aneel maintains red flag level 2 (R$ 5.00 per 100kWh). This increases demand for temporary energy. Tecnogera provided generators to pump water from the dead volume of Cantareira in 2015, ensuring the supply of millions of homes.

Energy demands of data centers

Digital transformation boosts demand for data centers in Brazil, with the market growing 15% annually to reach US$ 1.3 billion by 2020. Data centers operate 24/7, requiring uninterrupted power for processing, cooling, and critical operations. An hour of outage can result in losses of US$ 84-108 thousand per company. Solutions include 45-2,250 kVA power generators on standby with automatic transition, as well as temporary use for maintenance and capacity increase.
