Gas to Power Solutions

Aggreko provides modular gas power solutions across Africa using LNG, CNG, and LPG, reliable, low-emission energy for industries in transition.

Reliable, Lower-Emission Energy for a Changing World

Aggreko delivers modular gas power solutions that help businesses across Africa achieve reliable, cleaner energy.

Our gas to power solutions use natural gas, LNG (liquefied natural gas), CNG (compressed natural gas), and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) to provide power that is flexible, scalable, and aligned with sustainability goals.

As industries reduce reliance on diesel and other carbon-intensive fuels, gas offers a practical transition pathway, lowering emissions today while supporting the growth of renewables.

How gas supports the Energy Transition

Natural gas plays an essential role in Africa’s energy mix. It bridges traditional and renewable power sources by providing dependable, lower-emission generation.

Key benefits of Aggreko’s gas technology:
  • Up to 40% fewer CO₂ emissions than coal and 30% fewer than oil.
  • Hybrid capability, integrating with solar, battery energy storage, and heat recovery systems.
  • Fast deployment and scalability, supporting temporary or long-term power needs.
  • Higher efficiency and reduced fuel costs, through modular, optimised designs.

Gas is not a stopgap, it’s a critical enabler for consistent, cleaner power during the energy transition.

Virtual pipelines - extending access to cleaner power

Aggreko’s virtual gas pipeline solutions deliver reliable, lower-emission energy to sites beyond existing infrastructure. By transporting LNG or CNG via road, rail, or sea, we provide a cost-effective, greener alternative to diesel.
Our modular power plants use this fuel to generate efficient, off-grid power, reducing costs and emissions while ensuring continuous operations. Virtual pipelines can also supplement limited pipeline capacity, keeping energy supply stable and flexible wherever it’s needed.

End-to-end gas power solutions

Aggreko provides a turnkey gas power service - from project assessment to ongoing operation. Whether for industrial plants, utilities, or infrastructure projects, Aggreko’s gas systems combine technical performance with environmental responsibility.

Our approach includes: 

  • No CAPEX requirement - rental model removes upfront investment.
  • Fully managed maintenance and monitoring, ensuring uptime and reliability.
  • 24/7 technical support through local and regional service hubs.
