Aggreko has launched three Tier 4 Final diesel generators designed for remote Canadian work sites. The units are available in 145 kW, 210 kW and 1200 kW 600V capacities and will be offered exclusively to Canadian contractors, the company said.
The generators are configured to meet Canadian market and regulatory requirements. All three models are CSA and UN31A compliant, covering electrical and fuel regulations in Canada, according to Aggreko. They also incorporate the company’s latest generator technologies for reliable, low-emissions power in commercial and industrial applications.
Onboard 600V output on the largest model
The 1200 kW model includes onboard 600V capability, which Aggreko says eliminates the need for additional step-up transformers. The direct 600V output is intended to reduce project complexity, improve cost-efficiency and reduce potential points of failure. Aggreko is positioning the model for large industrial loads where 600V is frequently required.
Paul Nascimento, managing director for Canada at Aggreko, said tailoring the company’s advanced generators for Canadian customers reflects the importance of the market. He cited large petrochemical and mining industries operating across vast and remote territories, along with construction and data-centre sectors, as sources of demand for powerful, precisely configured energy solutions.
Deployment and fleet range
The 145 kW and 210 kW models are canopy units that Aggreko describes as readily deployable for immediate energy needs. The 1200 kW unit is aimed at large industrial loads. The new models expand Aggreko’s Canadian fleet, which ranges from 25 kW to 1200 kW.
Aggreko’s Canadian service-centre network will support deployments for industries including data centres, construction, oil and gas, mining and events. The company says the generators can supply temporary power for a range of applications.
Emissions, noise and data-centre use
Aggreko says all three Canadian Tier 4 Final generators offer fuel efficiency, ultra-low emissions and controlled noise levels that surpass local requirements. The company also sees the models as suited to Canada’s expanding data-centre industry. As provincial regulators look to limit how much power data-centre operators draw from the grid, Aggreko says its Tier 4 Final generators can provide off-grid energy to keep facilities operational with minimal disruption to communities.
