Generator. Secure backup when it matters.
Stage V diesel generator with Volvo Penta engine, Leroy Somer alternator, and ComAp synchronization control — grid-code certified according to EN50549-1 and built for critical operation, emergency power, and system services.
Key figures
Ready for mission-critical operations
Volvo Penta TWD1683GE
16.1 L inline 6-cylinder engine, turbocharged and water-cooled, with a continuous output of 582.6 kWm at 1500 rpm.
ComAp InteliGen 1000
Synchronizing control for parallel operation with InteliVision 5.2 display, ready for 1000 A at 400 V, 3-phase.
Stage V & EN50549-1
The engine is certified to Stage V emission standards, and the synchronization controller is third-party certified (Kiwa) to EN50549-1 for safe and approved grid connection.
Motor, generator and control in detail
All figures are from the manufacturers' own data sheets and an independent third-party certification of grid code compliance.

One generator, three roles
The generator is not just an emergency solution — it is an active part of your energy system, managed by our VPP and EMS platform together with the battery and load bank.
Emergency power & backup
In the event of a power outage, the generator starts automatically and takes over the supply of critical loads until normal operation is restored.
Up-regulation & system services
The generator can provide upward-regulating capacity for Energinet's reserve markets, such as mFRR. The ComAp controller supports load transfer in under 100 ms when there is a need for extra power in the grid.
HVO and biogas-ready operation
The engine is approved for HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) according to EN15940 and can be prepared for biogas operation, so that emergency power and capacity upgrades do not need to be based on fossil diesel.
Without a generator vs. with a generator from Meganet
A generator changes how exposed your operations are to grid outages and peak loads.

Good to know about generators
How quickly does the generator start in the event of a power failure?
The ComAp controller detects a mains failure and automatically starts the generator, ensuring critical loads have their supply restored as quickly as possible.
Can the generator run on anything other than diesel?
Yes. The engine is approved for HVO according to EN15940 and can be prepared for biogas operation, so you can reduce the fossil fuel share of your emergency power and regulation capacity.
Can the generator participate in system services?
Yes, the generator can provide upward regulating capacity to markets such as mFRR when it is not occupied with emergency power standby. The ComAp controller supports load transfer in under 100 ms.
How often does the generator require service?
Like all rotating machinery, the generator requires scheduled service and ongoing supervision. Meganet handles agreed-upon maintenance throughout the entire operating period.
Can the generator be synchronized with a battery system?
Yes. The ComAp controller supports parallel operation with other sources, so the generator, battery, and load bank can work together as one system via our EMS platform.
Which emission standards does the generator meet?
The engine is certified to Stage V, the strictest current EU emission standard for internal combustion engines in this power class.
Is the generator approved for grid connection according to the Danish/European grid code?
Yes. The synchronization controller (ComAp InteliGen 1000) is third-party certified by Kiwa to EN50549-1:2019 and tested according to EN50549-10:2022 (certificate 23-364-00), and also supports European grid codes such as VDE-AR-N 4110/4105, UK G99, and the American IEEE 1547.
