New Delhi: Kirloskar Oil Engines, one of India’s most trusted and leading Generator brands, today announced the formal launch of its gas powered generator range. Kirloskar has always been focused on sustainable and customer centric solutions and along with increasing concerns for sustainability and availability of gas, industry segments were looking to them as leaders of backup power solutions providers to create alternative fuel based Genset options.
These IoT enabled gas generators not only run efficiently even in extreme cold conditions on PNG, but also offer a digital monitoring system that enables users to remotely monitor the generator’s performance and important parameters in real time from just about anywhere. In addition, the emission and noise levels are much lower than a conventional generating set.
The company also launched its dual fit kit that can be retrofitted on its existing as well as future diesel generators to run on a combination of gas and diesel. The event was graced by Kirloskar Channel partners, Ms. Gauri Kirloskar, Managing Director, Mr. Arvind Chabra, Vice President- Prime Power Solutions and other senior officials from Kirloskar Oil Engines.
“These CPCB II compliant Gas Generators manufactured at the company’s carbon neutral plant in Kagal, Kolhapur don’t just comply with the CPCB-II Emission Norms, they surpass them. The low particulate matter in the genset will result in environment sustenance. Overall safety of these Gas Gensets has been kept at the forefront in the design itself”, said Arvind Chabra in his introductory remarks.
Going forward, natural gas as a cleaner energy source makes the move to a more sustainable, reliable, affordable, efficient and environmentally friendly energy transition possible due to its increasing availability and advantages over other fossil fuels.
Speaking at the launch function, Gauri Kirloskar said, “Successful launch of this innovative technology is not only a testimony of our commitment to a cleaner and more sustainable future, but it is also a step towards larger, make-in-India, affordable, clean energy solutions. At a time when energy costs are on the rise due to geopolitical pressures across the globe, significant changes are taking place in the energy landscape. A substantial market with immense potential for alternate energy technologies has emerged across all spheres.”
She also stated that, “Kirloskar’s technological expertise in alternative energy including Bio Diesel, Bio Gas, Ethanol and solar etc. has strongly positioned it at the forefront of the clean energy transformation mission. Our dedication and contribution to climate commitments is evident from our unrelenting performance in research, innovative products and service offerings customized to address the needs of our valued customers.”
Kirloskar with a strong global market presence has a wide and committed service network offering assistance and 24×7 service. This extensive and experienced reach will help existing customers adopt alternative fuel options.
Renewables, in combination with energy efficiency, now form the leading edge of a far-reaching Power Generation energy transition. “KOEL will work towards being a fuel-agnostic power generations provider so that customers have the freedom of choice between cost effective and green solutions”, Gauri added.
