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.

Tecnogera showcased at Brazil Windpower 2019

In the image, a woman presents in front of a screen with colorful icons and texts to a seated group in a modern, well-lit environment. The space features black chairs, a projector, white bags, GerAção posters on the walls, and emphasizes the theme "future." The scene is part of Tecnogera's initiatives.

Tecnogera participated in the 10th edition of Brazil Windpower, the largest wind energy event in Latin America, with 3,000 visitors and 90 exhibitors. The company showcased its 13 years of expertise with over 2,500 commissioned wind turbines. Load banks are essential in commissioning for testing and identifying system failures. Growth expected with the resumption of sector auctions…

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

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.

Five Scenarios Where Temporary Power is Crucial for Mining

Mining accounts for 4% of Brazil’s GDP and 25% of the trade balance, with iron ore exports growing 25.4% in 2018 (394.24 million tons). China, the Netherlands, and Japan are the largest importers. In remote locations without access to the SIN, temporary power is essential in five scenarios: climate control at depths for worker safety; operation of large machinery from exploration; transport of heavy materials from depths; security and ventilation systems; and supply throughout the mine’s lifespan. Tecnogera offers customized solutions considering climate, terrain, and specific demands.

Renewable Market on the Rise

Solar energy is expected to grow by 44% in 2019, reaching 3.3 GW with investments of R$ 5.5 billion. Distributed generation facilitates supply to homes and businesses. Wind energy is projected to produce 15,000 MW in the first quarter, becoming the second largest energy source (10% of the electricity matrix). There are over 500 wind farms in Brazil. Power generators are essential on construction sites, and load banks are crucial during commissioning to test and integrate systems. Tecnogera has commissioned over 2,500 wind turbines with teams available 24/7.

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.
