Cummins Power, an integral element of the power mix

Cummins Generators serve as robust standalone power solutions and play an essential role in microgrid systems. A microgrid constitutes a local energy system capable of generating, potentially storing, and distributing energy to facilities within its network. Cummins’ solutions seamlessly integrate all essential components of a microgrid, encompassing diesel and natural gas generator sets, hydrogen technologies, renewable energy sources, battery storage systems, systemlevel controls, transfer switches and remote monitoring capabilities. This comprehensive integration ensures a smooth and efficient power supply, thereby enhancing the reliability and sustainability of the energy infrastructure. These generators operate harmoniously with other distributed energy resources within the microgrid, including solar photovoltaics, wind turbines and power storage systems. Central to these microgrids are intelligent controls and management software, which continuously monitor energy demands and optimise energy distribution accordingly. In the event of a utility outage, the microgrid can immediately switch to backup generators and batteries, ensuring continuous uninterrupted power supply. This redundant system significantly improves the resilience of the local energy infrastructure. Cummins Generators not only deliver robust benefits as standalone units but also substantially enhance the efficiency and reliability of microgrid systems. With winter loadshedding in mind, we currently have stock in country of 17 units of 2 250-kVA generators ready for dispatch, pricing details are available upon request. Cummins.com
