THE CHALLENGE

To power the largest logistics centre in Spain in time for Black Friday

In Spain, the country’s largest logistics centre was in the process of being completed. This acts as a hub for the customer to deliver goods across the country.
With Black Friday approaching, the customer had a pressing need to ensure that the centre was completed and operational. 

That would require a grid connection, but this would not be accomplished before
the big day, leaving the customer looking at a huge amount of lost income.

With the scale of the centre and the time constraints, the customer searched for a partner
that could fulfil this power demand in the time necessary.

Only Aggreko could fit the bill.

THE SOLUTION

9 MW of expertly devised, rapidly deployed, modular power

Firstly, any solution needed to be located near to the transformation centre, to ensure the building could be connected to power. We devised a solution that comprised 9 MW of mobile, modular generators and related ancillaries that ensured the facility could operate.

We also synchronized the generators in groups, so that there reliability could be maintained, even when maintaining equipment.

THE IMPACt

Centre opened in time to deal with Black Friday demand, maximizing profits

The logistics centre was opened in time for Black Friday, meaning thousands of orders could be delivered to people
across the country.

That also meant the customer managed to maximize profit opportunities, thanks to our reliable and rapid services.
