The SEL powerMAX system for mobile microgrids ensures reliable power for applications in remote destinations (like oil drilling and mining) or that require mobility and rapid deployment, such as disaster relief efforts or a military forward operating base (FOB).
SEL tactical mobile microgrids provide reliable power in military locations and through adverse events.
SEL microgrid systems offer many advantages for military applications:
An SEL mobile microgrid allows you to parallel multiple diesel generators, which improves efficiency—and the ability to take a hit and keep running. Sharing the load between generators eliminates single points of failure and allows you to locate the control center anywhere you choose.
Instead of sizing a generator to the peak demand of the respective function (e.g., operations center, mess hall, or medical facility) and running it inefficiently most of the time, a parallel generator setup allows you to run a few diesel generators at high efficiency while resting the remaining generators.
As loads increase, you can bring more generators online to meet the demand. This process also increases operational efficiency by reducing wet stacking (and maintenance) and saving fuel, which prolongs mission operations capability and increases resiliency.
All of our electronic devices are designed, tested, and manufactured in SEL-owned and -operated facilities in the United States.
