Trusted by water boards and rural councils

We've supplied and maintained generator equipment for water boards and rural councils around the country, relationships that have lasted well beyond the first delivery.

Mobile power for temporary and emergency needs

We supply mobile generators for temporary and emergency power requirements, including storm response, evacuation centre support and short-term power for essential infrastructure while permanent repairs are underway. Equipment is deployed where and when a community actually needs it.

Standby power generators for everyday council infrastructure

Emergencies aren't the only reason a council needs reliable generator power. Depots, pump stations, community facilities and water infrastructure all depend on power that doesn't fail quietly, disaster or no disaster. We supply and maintain standby generator equipment for exactly this kind of everyday infrastructure need.

The generator brands we supply to councils

For emergency power, facilities and infrastructure, we draw on Cummins, Pramac and Maxwatt depending on the application, from mobile emergency units through to standby power for permanent infrastructure. Tell us the use case and we'll recommend accordingly.
