Recently, Genelite was commissioned to design and supply a custom 1100 kVA standby-rated diesel generator, complete with a 4000-litre integrated fuel base tank. This heavy-duty unit was engineered to provide critical backup power for a major water project, where continuous operation is vital to community services.
Tailored Engineering for Demanding Applications
No two installations are ever the same, and this project required a precise, site-specific solution. Genelite’s engineering team developed a custom 4000L base design to meet the client’s civil and spatial requirements, ensuring perfect integration with the existing site works and long-term durability in demanding outdoor conditions.
Built around a standby-rated 1100 kVA power system, the unit offers exceptional load handling, and extended runtime from its high-capacity fuel system, providing reassurance during both planned maintenance and unexpected outages.

Supporting Multiple Regional Sites
In addition to the main generator installation, several smaller sets have been prepared to service satellite facilities across the region. These units are being stored temporarily at the client’s operations hub pending completion of civil works, ensuring they’re ready for rapid deployment as each site comes online.
Reliability That Keeps Essential Services Running
For critical utilities and infrastructure operators, downtime is simply not an option. Genelite’s turnkey approach from design and fabrication to testing, delivery, and ongoing support – provides confidence that backup power will perform exactly as required when it matters most.
This project is another example of how Genelite’s local engineering expertise continues to support the backbone of Australia’s essential infrastructure with power solutions built for reliability, efficiency, and long-term resilience.
