What does a power outage cost your grocery store?

Dpower / Backup power for grocery stores

The goods. The sales. The trust.
Plan to keep what matters most running.

Discover the solution

When the power goes out

It's more than the lights going out. It's an entire business that is affected.

The cold chain, the checkouts and your customers' everyday life all depend on electricity.
The right backup power starts with understanding your store.

01 — The store's needs

Start with what matters most

What needs to
keep working?

01

Refrigeration & freezers

Prioritise refrigeration and freezer systems to reduce the risk of spoiled goods and a broken cold chain.

02

Checkouts & systems

Plan the power supply to checkouts, network and IT. Payments also require working communications and external services.

03

Lighting & operations

Identify the lighting, ventilation and other equipment needed to keep the business running.

Power. From within.

Follow the power from generator set to engine and connection. Every solution starts with the store's needs.

01The whole picture

The power behind an open store.

Backup power starts with what has to keep working. We help you size the generator set to the store's loads, the building and the required runtime.

From power requirement to the right scope of delivery

02The enclosure

A complete unit that fits the site.

Placement, noise requirements and service access determine how the backup power is designed. We review the conditions before choosing a generator set.

03Behind the power

The engine at the core.

Engine, generator and controls need to work together. We choose the components based on power requirement, operating profile and installation requirements.

04The engine

Power starts in the engine.

The Hyundai DX05 is a four-cylinder diesel engine for generator applications. Five-litre displacement and EU Stage V. The engine is chosen together with the generator to meet the needs of the business.

Engine example: DX05 (DP054CAV). The final engine choice depends on the selected solution.

05Fuel & runtime

Plan for the hours that follow.

Required runtime, load and the ability to refuel with diesel determine fuel planning. We help you find the right conditions for enduring backup power.

Engine and fuel supply are chosen for the complete solution

06Mobile backup power

Mobile backup power. Ready to connect.

With PowerSyntax from Italian manufacturer Valentini, Dpower offers Powerlock-compatible connections for mobile backup power. This makes it easier to connect equipment that uses the same connector system. Colour-coded and mechanically keyed connectors help prevent incorrect connection. The connection is planned together with the building's electrical installer.

From need to working solution

The right generator set.
The right conditions.

Dpower supplies both mobile and stationary backup power solutions. We help you choose the right design and scope – from generator set and connection to service and spare parts.

01Mobile backup power

Power that can go where you go.

Backup power that can be moved to where it is needed. In addition to generator sets, cabling and connections, we can also supply trailers. We adapt the solution to the site, the power requirement and how it will be used.

Portable solution · Can be supplemented with a trailer

02Stationary backup power

Backup power for permanent installation.

A stationary solution is planned for permanent installation at the store. Output, placement, noise level and fuel supply are adapted to the business.

Sized for your business

No store
is a standard load.

Your needs determine the size. Before we make a proposal, we go through four things together.

kW / kVA

Power requirement

Which equipment needs to be powered? What do the load and starting currents look like?

Hours

Required runtime

How long does the store need to keep going, and how will diesel refuelling be arranged?

Site

Installation

Space, noise, ventilation, exhaust and access for service and refuelling.

Start

Transfer to backup power

Manual or automatic switchover, load prioritisation and any need for a UPS.

Output, noise level, runtime and scope of delivery are determined for the selected configuration.
