Backup generator ensures power access for Data & Cloud center Interconnect

Power. On many locations we simply cannot do without. Power outages can, after all, have immense consequences. Especially for a data & cloud center. Living without internet, nowadays it is impossible! That’s why Interconnect turned to us to help them find a good backup power supply.

Interconnect

Total power of 20 MVA

To ensure that the data & cloud center of Interconnect remains operational even during a power outage Bredenoord set up ten indoor 2000 kVA gensets (with a total power of 20 MVA), including ten 15,000 ltr. Kiwa certified fuel installations.

These gensets are set up per two, in a backup generator building. This building has been equipped with a sound attenuated ventilation and exhaust fume system. The flue gases are lead up the facades through a flue gas discharge pipe that opens above the roof. The gensets are set up redundantly and are equipped with a synchronized operating system suitable for grid parallel and mutually parallel operation.

In addition, Bredenoord provides maintenance for these machines as well as extensive service, seven days per week, day and night. This is how we guarantee to Interconnect that their datacenter will always remain operational during sudden power outages.
