Abstract

Today, packaged, reliable and fully tested electric generation solutions can be delivered to your site and integrated with your existing electricity connections. They can be used for emergency backup generation and/or used to reduce how much electricity you need from the electric utility company on a regular basis. Onsite generation products are now available for any size metalcasting facility. For generation requirements less than 6 Megawatts, you might find using natural gas-fueled reciprocating engines to be the best choice. Some vendors make this a very easy decision. "They pay for the total cost of the generation equipment, installation, fuel and maintenance costs. The vendor pays for all costs of installing and operating the generator(s).
