Supporting The Grid 11 MW Base Load Station
The challenge to the customer
An important power station in
Melilla, Spain was installing new generators at their site. During
the installation process, sizeable losses of power were
expected.
Aggreko's solution
Aggreko initially installed 5 MW of
power to supply the necessary back up power. During the
installation period, power demand in the area drastically
increased. Aggreko immediately increased the temporary power supply
to 11 MW to compensate for the change in power demand. The
customer’s grid base load station was fully manned by Aggreko for
three years.
The benefits to the customer
Aggreko’s temporary power supply
allowed the grid station to meet demand without any disruption.
Aggreko’s reliability, quick response and flexibility to provide
additional equipment successfully maintained operations for the
plant.
