Commercial diesel generators are often synonymous with back-up power (i.e. standby emergency power), but diesel generators are versatile and can be used across a wide range of industries. While not a complete list, we will cover some of the largest and most common industries that utilise commercial diesel generators.
Diesel generators are often found on site at power plants when the mains grid is down, powering essential functions such as pumps, fans, hydraulics, battery chargers and other key functions. Depending on the type of power plant, such as a hydroelectric plant, diesel generators can also be used to activate and control spillway gates to prevent flooding in the event of a mains power failure. Most importantly, diesel generators help power plants that may need to undergo a process known as 'black start', a procedure to restore power to consumers after a complete grid outage.
An important aspect of property management is ensuring that your customers and tenants always have the power they need, even in the event of a power outage. Whether the property is commercial, residential, educational, medical or industrial, standby generators can play a vital role in ensuring the safety of customers and tenants.
For example, in the event of a power failure, a standby generator can keep any escalators, lifts, warning systems, sump pumps and heating/cooling systems running. If any tenant relies on life-saving medical equipment or transport equipment, a standby generator can provide the required power.
Diesel generators are considered one of the world's largest mission-critical environments and can provide back-up power in the event of a power outage. Hospitals, operating theatres and emergency room inpatient centres rely on a variety of life-saving medical tools and equipment. Diesel generators help these medical facilities maintain vital equipment, such as those on ICU patients and oxygen pumps.
Applications of Diesel Generators
Many companies rely on data centres to store, back up and process critical information. Due to the critical role of handling, storing and processing sensitive data, data centres are expected to run 100% of the time. Loss of power due to power outages can have a negative impact on data centre processes, including data loss. Diesel generators are a common solution to ensure that all data remains intact and that all data centre operations can continue uninterrupted in the event of a power outage.
Millions of people rely on telecommunication towers for more than just making calls and sending text messages. They are also vital in enabling emergency responders, police, hospital staff and many others involved in mission-critical operations to communicate with each other. Imagine a power outage and the collapse of a telecoms tower? Communications in the area would cease. Diesel generators are often used to provide back-up power to telecommunications towers and to ensure that continuous communication channels can be maintained during those critical times.
While these are some of the larger industries that typically rely on diesel generators to provide backup and continuous power to their operations, there are other industries such as agriculture, livestock, marine use, disaster relief and more.
