Genesal Energy ensures business continuity for a shopping area in Denmark

The installation of a generator in a shopping centre is crucial to ensure operational continuity in the event of a widespread power outage. As these can cause significant economic losses, backup power can mitigate these risks by protecting food and perishable goods, as well as ensuring the safety of customers and employees on the premises.

The project presented considerable complexity, as the starting point was the need to fit a 660 kVA genset in a small room. To meet the customer’s needs, the engineering department designed a special canopy, with a completely redesigned frame that made it possible to reduce the height of the final assembly. This redesign was possible thanks to a made-to-measure silencer and the redesign of the cab’s longitudinal axles.

In addition, to meet the requirement to maintain an average noise level of 80 dB(A) at 1 meter, an external silencer was designed to be attached to the room’s air outlet, ensuring that the appropriate acoustic levels are maintained, and the comfort of the end customer is safeguarded.

This project in Copenhagen is a perfect example of how Genesal Energy adapts to the specific needs of each client, even in the most challenging conditions,’ explains Genesal Energy’s engineering department. ‘Our mission is to provide energy solutions that are not only effective, but also contribute to the safety and well-being of the communities in which we operate.’

Genesal Energy continues to reaffirm its commitment to innovation and quality in the energy sector, ensuring that commercial facilities across Europe have the solutions they need to deal with any eventuality.

Genesal Energy will guarantee power supply to Vialia, the biggest shopping center in Vigo

Vialia will open its doors in 2021 and will do so with Genesal Energy emergency power. We supplied two generator sets of great power, 600/660 kVA (GEN660YA) & 910/1000 kVA (GEN1000YI) each, designed to guarantee power supply for the building, which shall become Vigo’s biggest shopping center.

Located in the center of the city -between Gran Vía and Urzaiz- the great complex will have a total surface of 43.080 m² and will combine its commercial use with the AVE’s new railway services and the bus terminal. Vialia will also feature a public plaza of 23.000 m².

Generator sets are essential for spaces of this nature. Just like with office buildings, shopping centers can’t risk a power outage: they feature multiple services, in this case, linked with leisure and restaurants, and as such the bustle of people is constant, and the planning facing any unforeseen setbacks is vital, as any accident or mains failure would cause great losses.

In the case of Vialia, at Genesal Energy we looked for a bespoke solution for the client, and opted for extremely reliable gensets adapted to the project’s requirements. These are the main features of both units.

GEN660YA Features

  • Genset with external fuel tank of great capacity.
  • Special baseframe for gensets of this size.
  • RS485 module.

GEN1000YI Features

  • New 6 meter canopy: for a soundproof genset of this power rating and characteristics, a new 6m canopy has been developed as an alternative to the 20 foot container to reduce size, lead time and costs.
  • The design of the canopy is characterized by being Heavy Duty. It’s modular, allowing for the installation inside it of engine-alternator assemblies of up to 1.250 kVA.
  • Allows an easy access to the control panel and circuit breaker, both located in their own cabinets with their own access door to the outside. It simplifies maintenance tasks due to its numerous doors on both sides.
  • External fuel fill connector, machinable cover for the control cable outlet and power cable outlet with rubber cover for improved isolation, and lifting lugs.
  • RS485 module.

Generator set to supply emergency power to a shopping centre

350 kVA generator set for a shopping centre

The Way Dos Hermanas shopping and leisure centre, in the city of Seville, has trusted in our generator sets with the installation of a GEN350YA unit for the new complex, which has a commercial surface of 50.000 square metres.

It is a 350 kVA generator set which will serve to guarantee the correct operation of the shopping centre in the case of an emergency. This is just one of the Genesal Energy generator sets located in the building, as we’ve also supplied gensets for a number of stores inside the shopping centre.
