Diesel generator hire

 Temporary diesel power generation for planned and emergency applications

Solve your commercial power generation challenges with our diesel generator rental service

Fast and flexible diesel generator hire

Our diesel generators range in size from 30 to 2100 kVA and are available in either a soundproofed canopy or 20-ft ISO container for enhanced security, durability and easy transportation by road, rail, sea or air.

Modular in design, our diesel generators for hire packages can be scaled up or down to give you the voltage and power you need. We can combine our diesel generators in different ways to deliver the exact amount of power for your site. If your power demands fluctuate, we’ll design a load-on-demand set-up where our portable diesel generators automatically turn on and off to meet the site’s load demands. This means we only provide the power you need when using our diesel generator rental service, saving on fuel, emissions and costs.

Proactive monitoring and fuel management to minimise risks and maximise performance

Remote monitoring services

Aggreko diesel generators utilise remote monitoring technology to ensure 24/7 equipment surveillance and maximise uptime. From our Remote Operations Centre, our team of engineers keep watch on a range of parameters, including loads, maintenance requirements, warning and failure alarms and GPS locations. When equipment functions outside these boundaries, they respond quickly before the problem develops, or rapidly deploy resources to resolve the issue on-site.

Fuel management

Leave the hassle of fuel management to us. Our competitively-priced fuel management service ensures you get regular fuel deliveries to keep your diesel generators for hire up and running. We schedule times that won’t interrupt your operations and use specialist vehicles to reach your equipment, no matter the terrain.
