At VP FlexGen Brazil, we respect the engineering that moves the Amazon. We elevate the operational base of diesel generators to their maximum efficiency level through strategic hybridization.
Large-scale generator sets form the backbone of regional energy security. Their immediate response capacity and stability are fundamental to Isolated Systems.
However, modern engineering demands that this robustness be accompanied by financial efficiency and operational sustainability. That is where VP FlexGen hybridization comes in.
In remote areas, these bottlenecks directly impact the financial balance and the health of assets.
High diesel cost aggravated by the complexity of Amazonian river logistics.
Premature carbonization, fuel dilution in oil, and accelerated ring wear.
Constant replacement of filters and oils raises O&M to unsustainable levels.
Sudden demand variations drastically reduce the longevity of the asset.
With support from photovoltaic solar and BESS, generators operate in load regimes where thermal efficiency is highest — consuming less fuel for every kW generated and reducing the plant's CCC.
The hybrid system assumes the load during periods of high solar irradiation and uses Peak Shaving to smooth demand peaks, allowing engines to be shut down or operate for less time, with maintenance intervals spaced out.
The BESS absorbs grid fluctuations and delivers a constant load to the generator, eliminating mechanical stress caused by sudden demand variations — preserving rings, liners, and injectors.
The evolution to a hybrid system results in real reductions of particulates and greenhouse gases. A cleaner, quieter plant — and above all, significantly more profitable.
Less wear and greater interval between overhauls for large-scale engines.
Drastic reduction in the total operating cost of the plant and the Fuel Consumption Account.
Engines operating always at the point of best performance, far from low-load zones.
The union of diesel power with the intelligence of renewable energy and storage.
Proprietary EMS commands the best combination between PV, BESS, and gensets in real time.
Less diesel burned means less risk of supply disruption in Amazonian river logistics.
Take your plant to the new era of hybrid engineering with those who understand engines and efficiency.
