ESSE is known to be a Generac distributor and the southeast’s major generator service provider, but we wear many hats! Of course we sell parts and service industrial HVAC in addition to our generator operations. There are still other little known parts of the Energy Systems workplace that don’t get as much coverage.
Total Cost of Ownership
Generac’s Industrial Power’s Total Cost of Ownership Calculator takes your local rates and product requirements into account when determining your total costs of ownership. This will help you determine your generator startup calculation. From there, you can go on to learn about the benefits of natural gas power or diesel units.
Co-Op Purchasing
Sourcewell, formerly National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) is a service cooperative created to provide programs and services to members in the government, education, and nonprofit sectors. Its statutory purpose is to assist members in meeting specific needs which are more efficiently delivered cooperatively than by an entity individually.
Selecting the Right Fuel Option
Diesel generators are the established standard for power generators, however several options are emerging to address issues such as smart grids, grid reliability, and environmental regulations. Fuel prices, supply, and maintenance are key factors in lifecycle costs and reliability for power generation.
Several factors favor the use of gaseous fuels :
– Relative fuel prices between 15 ppm ultra-low sulfur diesel and natural gas widening
– Forecasts of domestic natural gas availability extremely robust
– Energy and environmental policies now incorporate Full Fuel Cycle analysis, bolstering gaseous fuels
– Lifecycle costs for gaseous generating sets are improving, including power density (first cost), fuel economy and maintenance costs
While these gaseous fuel options are not viable for Critical Operations Power Systems (NFPA 70 Article 708), natural gas, dual-fuel or bi-fuel generator equipment can provide advantages in reliability and lifecycle costs for many backup power applications.
Business Connectivity
MiraLink is an advanced Industrial IoT solution that will transform how you manage your power equipment. It provides real-time monitoring, control, and customizable compliance reporting. This enhances equipment reliability, and operational efficiency, through predictive maintenance and advanced analytics. It’s the essential tool for maximizing not just the potential for Generac power equipment but any manufacturer equipment, leaving your facility uninterrupted.
