Web site details standby power generators

Web site provides useful technical data and images on a range of generators - from 1kW to 3000kVA - as well as examples of the low monthly rentals some clients have benefited from.

Generator Associates are proud to announce the official launch of their new Web site.

Generator Associates are the fastest growing standby power generation company in the UK, with over 20 years experience in all aspects of backup and primary power generation.

They can supply a range of generators from 1kW to 3000kVA including UPS.

Their new Web site could not have come at a better time, as the growing number of power cuts cripple businesses throughout the world.

Proactive organisations need to plan now, to keep their doors open when it happens.

The new website provides useful technical data and images on a range of generators as well as examples of the low monthly rentals some of our recent clients have benefited from.

What makes Generator Associates unique in their field is that they provide generators for backup and primary power alongside leasing solutions that take the sting out of the tail of capital expenditure, spreading the financial outlay over an extended period.

Electrical power is everyone's ultimate dependency, with the majority of critical business services dependent upon it, however it is becoming less reliable.

Businesses throughout the world have recently experienced the devastating effects of power failures such as in the UK, US, Italy, and Scandinavia.

Unless organisations take action now, the next blackout could severely damage your reputation and ultimately your profitability.

Generator Associates are proud to offer a free assessment of your power supply needs, and will take on your problem as their own.

While you sit back Generator Associates do all the work and present the most beneficial power supply solution to you.

The leasing packages mean you simply pay a fixed low monthly rental for your new solution, and receive peace of mind with after-sales service including 24/7 emergency call out, technical help-line, and tailored maintenance packages.

BHEL, NPCIL ink MoU to produce N-Power plant equipment

Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Nuclear Power Corporation of India (NPCIL) an another public sector unit (PSU) to form a joint venture company (JVC) to carry out engineering procurement and construction (EPC) activities on the secondary side of the nuclear power plants.

Heavy industries and public enterprises minister Vilasrao Deshmukh said that these activities include production of turbines of 700 mega watts energy (MWe) and above rating within India and abroad.

He said BHEL (Q,N,C,F)* is in discussions with probable/likely international technology providers for 700 MWe and above nuclear turbines.

BHEL has already manufactured and supplied some Nuclear reactor components like steam generators, Reactor Headers and Nuclear Turbine Generator set to NPCL for their 220 MWe reactors.

He said earlier in March this year BHEL was awarded a contract for manufacture of steam generator for 700 MWe reactor.

Comdel Supplies Power Generators To Korean Solar Company

Comdel Inc., a supplier of RF and DC power supplies and process instruments to the semiconductor and photovoltaic industries, supplied a major Korean company in the solar industry with the CXH 50K, 40 MHz generator.

According to Comdel, the CXH is one of the highest-frequency power generators made for solar applications. The generator will be used in the production of solar cells.

The CXH Series of high-power supplies is designed to operate at a fixed frequency over the range of 2 MHz to 40 MHz, with power from 15 kW to 100 kW. The rugged amplifier design is well suited to demanding applications where stability and reliability in the presence of erratic loads is required, Comdel says.

Scorpion system tests power generators online

Scorpion Power Systems has introduced a system that allows power generators to be tested online.

The system operates in parallel with the mains supply, which allows the generator's load to be tested without a break during a mains-failure simulation.

This is important as these simulations can disturb the site supply.

The panel provides a visual generating and mains-supply status and also incorporates a full data-logging facility.

By incorporating a PLC control system, the unit can communicate via a communications link with the generator to create a PLC network.

This allows the generator to step in and take over from the UPS no longer than 30 seconds after a mains failure.

When it detects the return of the mains power, Scorpion's system switches back automatically without a break in power supply.

The Scorpion system can also provide peak-lopping.

This is useful for companies that may be financially penalised by the regional electricity company for exceeding their specified power consumption.

When this point is about to be reached, the control system can be programmed to start the generator automatically so that it takes over the load without a break in power supply.

The panel complies with power regulation G59.

It is almost half the size of earlier no-break return systems.

It can be specified with Scorpion Powerhouse generators, which provide long-term protection for critical and sensitive equipment.

It can also be retrofitted to existing systems.

Merchant Power Generators Rise As Natural Gas Prices Rebound

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Shares of merchant power-generation companies soared Friday, fueled by a recent rebound in natural gas futures prices.

Independent power producers such as Dynegy Inc. (DYN), Calpine Corp. (CPN) and NRG Energy Inc. (NRG) rely on market prices rather than regulated rates for their output. The companies have been battered amid a steep decline in natural gas prices and a slump in electricity demand. Plants that run on natural gas often set prices in regional power markets, resulting in a strong correlation between natural gas and power prices.

Shares of Dynegy were recently up 20% at $2.09, Calpine shares rose 17% to $11.11 and NRG was up 10% at $21.15. Others in the sector, including Mirant Corp. (MIR), shot up as well Friday.

"My call is it would be all gas related," said Brandon Blossman, an analyst with Tudor Pickering Holt & Co., of Friday's gains across the sector.

Natural gas futures have rebounded by more than 20% since the end of April, when gas traded near its lowest in more than six years, with the biggest gains coming in the last week. Gas for June delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange was recently up 4% to $4.243 a million British thermal units.

Blossman said strength in natural gas prices can have a two-fold effect on the shares of power producers. First, power producers benefit from the expectations of higher margins as power prices rise. Then, the macroeconomic factors often pushing up gas futures are viewed as positives for power demand, Blossman said.

In the last week, several power producers have reported stronger-than- expected first-quarter earnings, as hedging programs have protected earnings over the near term.

Merchant power stocks don't seem to have been hurt by a dampened outlook for merger and acquisition activity. Speculation of deals provided a boost to stocks in recent months. But a week ago, RRI Energy Inc. (RRI) ended a strategic review without selling its whole business. Then on Friday, Mirant executives downplayed activity in the near term during a conference call with analysts.
