We are building a new factory and want to get a back up generator.
This would run on natural gas, for various reasons.
I've no experience of generators, only what i can glean off the web.
I'm wondering what questions I should put to potential suppliers.
We need to have back up power in case of a mains outage, as, if power fails during some critical operations, our equipment will break, and we'll end up junking some very expensive products also.
We're also likely to be getting very close to our supply limit on occasions (220kVa) so I wondered what the consensus on load shaving was.
Sadly it seems, from reading manuacturers websites, that a gas turbine powered genny isn't really applicable here.
I rather fancied having a jet engine to play with. Shame.
Any thoughts, or suggestions would be very kind.
Regards,
Rob
