Diesel engines for emergency power supply
With emergency power generators, the electrical level of usage and operating costs play a secondary role. What is most decisive is reliable and swift load pickup of the engines. This is because emergency power generators are geared to electrical peak power in emergency operations. MAN diesel engines have the necessary power and the condition for average mileages of well over 300 h/a, at a load factor of around 100%.
