Generators for Public Safety Power Outages
In February of 2019, PG&E filed updates to its California wildfire mitigation plan with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) announcing under dangerous conditions the high voltage power lines will be de-energized in high fire-threat areas.
California utility providers SCE and PG&E are conducting Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events in California as part of the plan. Critical power facilities need to evaluate their utility service coverage immediately and assess their ability to withstand loss of grid power and the need for a backup generator to maintain uptime.
Facility Backup Installation
Planned Power Outages
Two days in advance of gusty winds and dry conditions, a PSPS event notification will be given to customers in a defined region. One day prior to a planned outage, a second notice is sent. The exact timing is not known and the duration of the event is subject to the weather conditions. According to a CPUC report, dated January 2020, there have been over 800 PSPS events that have impacted almost 973,000 customers in California. On average each of these customers had about 43 hours of power outage.
California CARB Compliant Generators
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has very specific rules for the operation of backup generators. CARB generator emmission regulations under emergency events like PSPS may allow you to use a backup generator however additional specific local permitting may also apply. The Environmental Protection Agency in 1996 implemented in a series of steps called Tier level regulations, over time, to successively require more stringent limitation of diesel non-road engine exhaust emissions. Over the 24-year period manufacturers have complied with Tier 2, Tier 3, Tier 4 Interm and culminated in Tier 4 Final generator emissions compliance. Owners need to be aware of how and when these rules affect operation of a rental or permitted diesel generator. We provide that expertise.
Power Project Considerations
- Budget – available capital or operating budget
- Physical space at the facility
- Project management talent or bandwidth to manage a generator installation project
- Lack of expertise to manage or maintain the on-site power system
- Ability to evaluate the risks and benefits of the various options that must be considered before deciding what to buy or rent
