Standby Power CPD Seminar

Overview

This CPD delivers a practical, engineer‑led exploration of modern standby power design. Attendees gain real‑world insight into operational challenges, design possibilities, and high‑value solutions that influence today’s resilient power strategies.

Discover how modern standby systems fit into evolving energy strategies, including sustainability pressures, changing building demands, and grid resilience challenges. Understand the role generators will play in tomorrow’s critical infrastructure — and what that means for your designs today.

Learn how to identify true quality in the market. From engineering standards to aftercare, discover the markers of a supplier who delivers long‑term reliability, reduced lifecycle costs, and complete client confidence.

Key Topics Covered

  • Engine Choice – How to select the right engine for efficiency, performance, noise, and emissions.
  • Fuel Types – Compare diesel, gas, HVO and alternative fuels — including sustainability and cost considerations.
  • Exhaust Systems – Discover how exhaust design affects feasibility, compliance, and installation outcomes.
  • Load Types – Understand load characteristics and how they influence generator sizing and behaviour.
  • Control & Monitoring – See how modern control strategies and remote monitoring enhance reliability, response times, and whole‑system visibility.

What You’ll Learn

  • Advise on the best physical locations of standby generators in new or existing buildings
  • Have sufficient understanding to estimate power requirements
  • Be able to assess the applicability of unorthodox solutions to the peripheral systems and components
  • Understand and be able to apply rules of thumb and methodologies for sizing and components
