Designed and manufactured in the UK, VariPower is an innovative variable speed hybrid generator incorporating all the elements needed to supply power to remote or standalone locations that would normally require a standard generator. The unit’s core is a true variable speed generator, which runs between 900 and 2,000rpm; and a highly efficient lithium battery bank which will utilise stored power for when silent power is needed or loads are low.

This combination makes VariPower a far more economical and efficient power option compared to a traditional fixed speed generator.

Running at just 900rpm the generator is using less fuel, making less noise and releasing fewer emissions. This also helps with increasing the longevity of the unit - the unit does not need to run at full speed for every load - therefore increasing the interval between generator services and replacement.

VariPower meets the increasing demand from industry for reduced operating costs, lower emissions and the option of silent power. Available in - 48VDC, single and three phase options the units offer 19kW prime hybrid power.

VariPower has a proprietary control system which offers a straightforward way to operate and control the unit. The display screen allows monitoring of all the relevant data from the engine, batteries and power electronics. This information can also be viewed remotely via an optional 3G internet connection allowing the reading to be seen on tablet, PC or smart phone.

Energy Solutions' Commercial Director, Mark Penny concluded: "These units meet the increasing demand from industry - particularly construction, telecom and utilities markets, for reduced operating cost, lower emissions and the option of silent power. With the options to connect renewable energy sources to them as well, they offer a true hybrid power option for business."
