Let's face it – power outages are like uninvited party crashers. They show up when you least expect them, ruin the mood, and leave everyone scrambling. Enter Aggreko ETS (Energy Technology Solutions), the superhero cape your operations didn't know they needed.

Let's face it – power outages are like uninvited party crashers. They show up when you least expect them, ruin the mood, and leave everyone scrambling. Enter Aggreko ETS (Energy Technology Solutions), the superhero cape your operations didn't know they needed. In the first quarter of 2023 alone, temporary power solutions prevented over $2.3 billion in potential losses across manufacturing sectors. But here's the kicker: not all temporary power is created equal.
What makes this different from your grandpa's diesel generator? Try these on for size:
Remember the 2022 Qatar World Cup? Aggreko kept 8 stadiums powered with 88MW of temporary energy – enough to light up 17,600 homes. But it's not just about big events.
A recent McKinsey study shows 73% of megaprojects blow their budgets. Power disruptions account for 22% of those overruns. Aggreko's modular systems helped the Sydney Metro project cut energy-related delays by 40% through:
Aggreko's secret weapon? Their Fleet Operations Center in Glasgow monitors 50,000+ assets globally. It's like having a power plant version of air traffic control. Their predictive algorithms can:
Take the 2023 Glastonbury Festival – Aggreko's solar-hybrid system powered 37% of the event while reducing generator noise complaints by 68%. Festival organizer Emily Eavis called it "the quietest muddy weekend we've ever had."
Here's where it gets juicy. Aggreko's "Power-as-a-Service" model helped a Canadian mining operation slash energy costs by 31% through:
Traditional wisdom says more maintenance = better uptime. Aggreko flipped the script with condition-based monitoring. One automotive plant reduced generator maintenance costs by 27% while increasing availability. It's like changing your car's oil only when it actually needs it – revolutionary!
When Hurricane Nora knocked out Puerto Rico's grid in 2023, Aggreko had 15MW of mobile power operational within 72 hours. Their secret? Pre-positioned equipment and local fuel partnerships that make FEMA look sluggish.
Aggreko's latest party trick? Hydrogen-ready generators. They're already testing units that can switch between H2 and diesel faster than a Tesla switches battery modes. Early adopters in the UK are seeing 54% lower emissions without sacrificing reliability.
Data center operators are the latest converts. With power densities hitting 40kW per rack, traditional UPS systems are crying uncle. Aggreko's modular substations helped a Silicon Valley startup scale from 2MW to 12MW capacity in 9 months – faster than they could hire engineers.
Let's address the 800-pound gorilla – isn't temporary power just for... well, temporary needs? Aggreko's seeing 39% of clients now use their solutions for semi-permanent applications. As one plant manager quipped, "Why buy when you can subscribe to better?"
The energy transition isn't coming – it's here. Aggreko's 2024 roadmap includes:
As regulations tighten (looking at you, California's CARB rules), Aggreko's solutions are becoming the Swiss Army knife of energy management. Whether you're planning a data center, film shoot, or disaster recovery plan, their playbook keeps rewriting the rules.
