/0 Comments/in , /by

Emergency power by Genesal Energy for the future Montero Hospital.

With a capacity for 200 beds and a budget of almost 35 million euros, the future Montero Hospital, in Bolivia, will have emergency power by Genesal Energy.

The project, in its final phase, is being carried out by the Bolivian Government and will result in a modern hospital complex which aspires to become a leading specialty centre in Montero, a city in the province of Obispo Santistevan, in the Santa Cruz Department.

In this case, at Genesal Energy we supplied a complete, turn-key service. We manufactured three 410-450 kVA soundproof units for the hospital complex, one of them automatic, and the other two operating in parallel, with an air outlet at the top of the units to adapt to the installation’s requirements. They are special units, manufactured after studying the building’s characteristics in detail. Because at Genesal Energy, we know that XXI century medicine requires the best power.

Features

  • 410/450 kVA units, soundproofed.
  • 800 L fuel tank integrated in the baseframe.
  • Air outlet at the top, following the building’s requirements.
  • 2 of the gensets will operate in parallel, the other will be automatic.
  • Automatic fuel transfer system.

 

10 Benefits of having a power generator set

Technical article. 10 benefits and advantages of electric generators

In a world increasingly dependent upon energy, technology and data, it is a priority to have a reliable and sustainable supply of electricity. This is precisely what generator sets offer us.

The importance of electric generators

The importance of generators lies in their ability to provide continuous power during outages and support critical infrastructure. In times of natural disasters or unexpected power failures, generators ensure that hospitals, data centers, and emergency services remain operational, safeguarding lives and essential data. Moreover, they enable businesses to maintain productivity and prevent financial losses, highlighting their crucial role in modern society.

However, the virtues of these devices go beyond what meets the eye and it is worth knowing them. We compiled a list of 10 fundamental benefits so that none of them is left out:

What are the main advantatges of having a generator set?

1. Uninterrupted Power: The Importance of Ensuring Continuity

Electricity supply no matter what. Generator sets are meant for you to always have electricity whatever happens. This means that problems with the electrical network will no longer be critical for you, given that you will be constantly backed up by an autonomous generation solution which is 100% effective.

2. Say Goodbye to Downtime: Boosting Productivity

Farewell to losses: relying on the backup of a generator set in your business allows you to forget about time and productivity losses supposed by power blackouts.

3. Empowering Autonomy: Expanding Possibilities

More autonomy, more possibilities: when using an energy distribution solution such as a genset you are no longer dependent on the limitations imposed by the infrastructure of the electrical network. This means more peace of mind and, most of all, more freedom when it comes to conceiving your business projects and letting them fly.

4. Mobile Power Solutions: Enhancing Flexibility

It allows you more mobility: generator sets allow you to have a power supply in areas lacking an electrical network. Therefore, they eliminate obstacles when it comes to carrying out projects and they contribute to the development of remote or disadvantaged areas.

5. Tailored to Your Needs: Customized Designs

Your project is in charge: at present, the design of gensets is tailored to the clients’ needs and the features of their projects. According to your requirements, you will be able to choose: between engines using different fuels, between stationary or mobile generators, between hybrid and marine generators, as well as between different profiles of power delivery and of use.

6. Adding an Extra Layer of Protection: Ensuring Security

An additional security layer: the consequences of a power outage go beyond the mere issue of productivity. A sudden “blackout” can cause severe damage to our devices and machinery and this is something that can be avoided if we have the backup provided by an emergency genset.

7. Sustainable Energy: Reducing Environmental Impact

It contributes to sustainability: as opposed to the great impact left by the emissions produced by thermal power stations, generator sets offer a model of energy production which increasingly allows one to leave the least possible environmental footprint. The present-day trend is represented by generators using fuels with low CO2 emissions, like natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Moreover, these are low noise devices, producing no sound pollution.

8. Long-Term Value: Making a Sound Investment

It is an investment which pays off: A generator set will give you an extremely valuable service and will continue to do so for a long time. Most certainly, with appropriate use and maintenance, you will have a safe, long-term investment.

9. Streamlined Energy Production: Enhancing Efficiency

More efficient energy production: statistics show that electricity losses in the Spanish network of transport and distribution amount to 8% of all available production. Using distribution solutions such as gensets, one manages to reduce such losses. Moreover, we contribute to avoiding overloads in the network during the peak hours.

10. Cutting Costs: Maximizing Savings

You save in consumption: gensets allow you to reduce costs, by helping you manage the electricity demand in a more economical way. For example, you can use them as a backup during peak hours, in order to avoid excessive consumption. According to calculations, you can save up to 40% in this time slot.

 

In short, a generator set brings you peace of mind, opens up a large spectrum of business opportunities and all this in an effective and sustainable way.

Do you think it could be an interesting solution for you as well?

At Genesal Energy we have a wide experience in the design of personalized generator sets and we’re here to help you turn your project into reality.

Genesal Energy will provide the power needed by the Javalambre Astrophysical Observatory (OAJ) to carry out its job optimally.

Built by the CEFCA (Centro de Estudios de Física del Cosmos de Aragón), the complex is located in the Javalambre mountain range, in Teruel. The observatory has two telescopes of great field of view, equipped with cutting-edge panoramic cameras in order to map the universe. It is, aditionally, a Singular Scientific and Technological Infrastructure (SSTI). SSTI’s are great, strategical, one-of-a-kind installations, considered indispensable in the development of a quality investigation.

The generator sets supplied by Genesal Energy are the sole power supply for the observatory. Both are special units which comply with the client’s needs: they’re adapted to and synchronize with the existing control panels in the installation, so that the engine and alternator are designed to operate with the client’s control system.

Features

  • Engine with electronic speed regulation.
  • Gensets for parallel operation.
  • Dimensioning of the genset for a height of 2000 masl.
  • Base frame fuel tank prepared for fuel transfer from another tank.
  • Adaptation of the fuel entry location according to client’s needs.

At Genesal Energy, we’ve designed and installed generator sets of different power ratings for emergency operation.

The goal was to guarantee the continuous supply to the stream, and to provide electricity to the Velle, Castrelos and CH Frieiras dams in the event of a mains power failure. Before executing the project, we carried out a study to correctly establish the dimensions of the gensets, dimensioning the power rating in each sluice gate keeping in mind factors such as voltage drops and slow speeds.

The result, gensets adapted to the conditions of each power plant. Because at Genesal Energy, we provide made-to-measure solutions. It’s the only way to achieve efficiency and reliability.

Features

450L fuel tank integrated in the baseframe, including a leakage tray with a capacity of 100% the capacity of the fuel tank, and a leakage sensor which sends a remote alarm through a dry contact.

  • Gel batteries to increase the starting capacity (allows 10 start-ups).
  • Ethernet / modbus TCP/IP communication module.
  • The system is designed for 400v and is capable of being regulated to 380v.
  • Alternator anti-condensation heaters in the units installed outdoors.
