Reliable temporary power solutions for utilities
Utility power: built for the demand of modern utilities
Grid operators face tough challenges. You must keep power flowing reliably while managing fluctuating demand, integrating renewables, and modernising vital infrastructure. These pressures lead to supply-demand imbalances, network congestion, and reduced grid stability. You need flexible solutions that respond fast and keep power available.
Aggreko solves these challenges. We provide temporary utility power solutions that deliver fast, reliable, and scalable generation capacity wherever and whenever you need it. Our systems strengthen grid resilience, maintain reliability, and support infrastructure development. We deploy them rapidly for both planned and unforeseen utility power needs.
How we help utility sector:
- Power when you need it most: Reliable backup during outages and peak demand.
- Boost network performance: Add capacity to reduce congestion and optimise your grid.
- Support the energy transition: Easily integrate renewable and lower-emission technologies.
- Power critical upgrades: Keep power flowing during infrastructure maintenance.
- Stronger grids: Improve resilience and energy security.
- Tailored solutions: Flexible, scalable deployments built for your exact needs.
- Full project support: From installation and commissioning to remote monitoring and 24/7 service.

Ready for every utility challenge
No two utility projects are the same. Generation assets, network infrastructure, remote locations, and grid support- each requires a different approach. Our solutions are tailored to your operation. We help you maintain reliability and keep power flowing.
For utilities, we deliver temporary power and cooling solutions for:
- Emergencies and outages: Storms, equipment failures and unexpected outages put pressure on your network and your customers. Our power solutions are deployed rapidly until permanent infrastructure is back online. They support grid stability, restore service, and maintain vital operations during emergencies.
- Planned maintenance and shutdowns: Planned maintenance and shutdowns are essential for long-term reliability. But they shouldn’t compromise reliability. Our backup power solutions keep operations running while assets are maintained, upgraded or replaced. So, you can complete critical jobs without compromising service continuity.
- Bridging power: Infrastructure upgrades, new generation projects, or delayed assets: whatever creates the gap, we help you bridge it. Our rapidly deployable power solutions maintain supply during construction, commissioning, maintenance and energy transition projects. We strengthen grid performance. And we ensure continuous power until permanent solutions are ready.
- Peak shaving and seasonal demands: Rising seasonal demand, industrial growth and changing generation patterns put networks under strain. We provide temporary utility-scale power that helps you meet peak demand, maintain reliability, and avoid costly interruptions without long-term infrastructure investment.
- High voltage power capacity: We support utility projects from 20 MW to 100 MW with industrial-grade transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers and control systems. Our in-house engineering teams design complete high-voltage networks, including load balancing and protection schemes, tailored to your site.
- Remote location support: We deliver turnkey power solutions for locations beyond the grid. Our temporary power systems are tailored to your site. This helps you maintain continuity, support new developments, and keep essential services running until permanent infrastructure is ready.
