Retail Construction Material Chain Benefits from Turnkey Emergency Climate Control

A bearded man, wearing a white helmet and reflective safety jacket, stands outdoors with a confident look. In the background, large wind turbines stand out against the cloudy sky, symbolizing the energy sector during Brazil Windpower. Tecnogera is present, bringing innovative solutions to this setting.

A major retail construction materials chain faced issues with their own chillers, over 10 years old, experiencing high rates of corrective maintenance. With temperatures reaching 34°C and long lead times for new equipment, the maintenance supervisor sought an immediate market solution. The first store in Rio de Janeiro had a complete equipment shutdown, requiring urgent action. Tecnogera delivered a 170TR Chiller in Turnkey mode in just 3 days (approved on Wednesday, installed and commissioned by Friday). The solution included freight, loading/unloading, installation, commissioning, de-installation, and complete accessories (hoses, cables, connections, panels). The reliability was such that the contract was extended to 6 months (initially 90 days). The second store in Niterói faced similar conditions, achieving the same success, with the equipment remaining in operation for 1 year…

Lack of air conditioning resolved with temporary rental in department store

A 5,500m² department store in Aracaju faced a failure in its 10+ year-old air conditioning equipment. Temperatures of 30°C caused discomfort for customers and staff. A complex logistical challenge arose: the store’s commercial pedestrian area prevented access by conventional trucks/cranes. Tecnogera devised an innovative solution: using the neighboring store’s parking lot on the street behind for hoisting. Nighttime operation (9 PM-4 AM): a 22T telescopic crane with a 34.8m boom transported the equipment to the rooftop. A 170TR Chiller was provided on a turnkey basis: hoses, cables, freight, loading/unloading, installation/removal. The initial 30-day contract was extended to 90 days. The maintenance manager, familiar with Tecnogera from other units, trusted the complex solution. The company is ISO 9001 certified, has a rigorous NPS program, 24-hour service, and distinguished commercial/technical support.

Cooling and Climate Control Systems: Everything You Need to Know

Essential systems for thermal comfort and product preservation. Studies show that 22% of workers have impaired concentration due to heat, with ideal productivity between 21-22°C. Thermolabile medications and food require continuous refrigeration to maintain quality. The system operates with a chiller cooling water sent to a fan coil unit that produces airflow. Rental offers cost savings and operational peace of mind.

Discover the advantages of using generators for small and medium-sized businesses

Generators aren’t just for large companies. SMEs benefit from uninterrupted operations, preservation of refrigerated products, stable energy in underserved areas, and cost savings during peak hours (5 PM-9 PM). An IDEC survey reveals only 52.97% satisfactory quality in national power distribution. Rental makes the investment accessible with delivery, installation, and maintenance included.

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.

Pharmaceutical Retail Growth Drives Demand for Temporary Power

Brazil has 78,000 pharmacies (1 for every 2,800 people) with a growth rate of 3% per year. The largest chain has 1,800 stores and 12.9% market share. Temperature-sensitive medications (2-8°C) require continuous refrigeration—any power interruption leads to loss of efficacy and mandatory disposal. Since 2015, the largest pharmaceutical chain has invested in energy security with power generators for continuous operation. Tecnogera has established a national network of partners for emergency service to pharmacies, ensuring medication protection.

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

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.

Climate Control is Essential

January 2019 was one of the hottest months on record, with only three days below 30°C and minimum temperatures above 20°C almost every day. Climate control has become crucial for businesses, especially shopping centers during school vacations. Complex systems with Chillers, Fan Coil Units, and Rooftops ensure energy efficiency. Energy expenses account for 45% of shopping centers’ condominium costs (50-60% from air conditioning). Applications include supermarkets, retail, and airports. Tecnogera opened a Chiller Training Center in 2018.

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.

Temporary power for mining excavator: a success story

Tecnogera tackled the challenge of providing temporary power for a mining excavator weighing over 400 tons, which needed to travel 4.5 km in a maximum of 40 minutes. The solution involved a mobile substation with 4 power generators of 1,100 KVA, a 2,500 KVA transformer, and a special cable system, ensuring continuous operation and avoiding downtime costs that could reach R$ 4,000 per minute of delay.
