Supporting utilities in primary power supply brings countless benefits to both the end consumer and the service provider.
Learn what UGTEM is and how it serves both the user and the utility.
What is UGTEM and what is its main function?
UGTEM stands for Mobile Energy Generation and Transformation Unit.
The main function of UGTEM is to provide temporary power to end users, supporting energy utilities.
Typically, the mobile unit ensures electricity for the end user in situations such as:
- Main grid repairs;
- Supply issues;
Additionally, UGTEM offers an affordable solution for energy utilities.
What is the physical structure of UGTEM and how does it work?
Positioned as a mobile energy supplier, UGTEM is designed to be itinerant, capable of moving between environments and locations, even those that are hard to reach.
Since its primary application is in utility grid maintenance scenarios, it is designed to be positioned near grid centers.
Energy supply is conducted through ramp transfer, meaning the power generator gradually takes control.
In practice, this benefits the end consumer quietly, as UGTEM assumes energy supply during main grid downtime, and best of all: without power interruption.
For utilities, UGTEM also offers benefits, which we will explore next.
How can UGTEM contribute to the utility’s performance?
The truth is, energy utilities need to ensure continuous power supply to end consumers.
There are even ANEEL – National Electric Energy Agency indicators specifically for monitoring service interruptions and availability.
DEC and FEC indicators are constantly evaluated, and performance (or lack thereof) can result in fines for energy utilities.
Understand what these indicators are, according to the ANEEL’s performance results release:
DEC: stands for Equivalent Interruption Duration per Consumer Unit and describes the time each unit was without power supply.
FEC: is the Equivalent Interruption Frequency per Consumer Unit, which counts the number of supply interruptions over the evaluated period.
Considering these points, it’s easy to understand why it’s important for utilities to ensure uninterrupted power supply.
Moreover, service continuity is one of the key factors for consumers to rate utilities as good service providers.
How to access UGTEM?
With so many benefits, it’s natural to want your city’s utility to have access to this solution.
Here at Tecnogera, we deliver UGTEM wherever there’s a need.
We highlight its use in energy utilities for service continuity, especially in maintenance situations.
However, this solution is also recommended for mobile-supported power supply in other scenarios. If you want to understand how we provide power to remote areas, check out this material.
