Prime power
Around the world, access to electrical power – prime or stand-by – is crucial. Regardless of the application, if you are building a genset, you are always looking for the same qualities in your engines – dependable, durable, reliable workhorses that require a minimum of service and maintenance.
This is where Scania engines are at their best. And that’s why Scania engines are ideal for power generation, with the most secure possible output at the lowest possible operating cost. We offer a wide range of engines covering requirements up to 636 kVA for prime power and 700 kVA for stand-by.
Compact dimensions. Power you can trust.
Our engines’ compact dimensions make them easy to package – an advantage in stationary plants and an even bigger advantage in mobile units. Reliability and dependability are Scania watchwords. And when your engines require service, they can be dealt with by a single technician.
Impressive step load and recovery time
Scania engines for power generation have been designed and developed to handle large step-load situations, yet with short recovery times.
Where the demands on coping with step-load situations are highest, our engines featuring EMS (Engine Management System) offer superb control, with both speed and load ramp functions.
High load variations are handled effectively, and despite the increase in output throughout the engine range, exhaust emissions have been kept down.
