Key Components of Defence Power Solutions
Military-Grade DG Sets
Our diesel generator sets are specifically tailored for defence deployment, conforming to MIL-Standard 461 for electromagnetic interference (EMI/EMC) and other military-grade environmental requirements. Designed for immediate and reliable power backup, these DG sets form the backbone of our defence power infrastructure, especially in remote or hostile operational theatres.
Ground Power Units (GPUs) & Auxiliary Power Units (APUs)
Vital for aircraft operations and radar systems, our in-house developed GPUs and APUs ensure power stability during aircraft maintenance. These units showcase our expertise in providing specialized and mission-critical power solutions that meet the specific needs of defence operations.
Defence Repowering Solutions
Our repowering solutions allow for the retrofitting of ageing or imported military vehicles such as tanks and artillery guns with state-of-the-art power packs. We deliver robust power packs with DG sets, battery banks, and hybrid configurations, advancing India’s self-reliance under the “Make in India” initiative. This not only strengthens logistical sustainability but also lessens dependence on foreign systems.
Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) – EnerPack
At the heart of our modern defence power strategy is the EnerPack, a compact and modular battery energy storage system that offers remarkable scalability. EnerPack integrates renewable energy sources, such as solar, with stored energy, ensuring continuous, low-carbon operations. With zero emissions and minimal running costs, it supports the deployment of sustainable, green energy in defence settings.
Engineering, Testing, and Quality Assurance
