The Scania-powered G500 is on display at the show
Scania has signed with Doosan to supply engines for two new generators, which are being launched at the Bauma exhibition in Munich.
The new Scania-powered generators are being produced by Doosan Portable Power, according to a company statement.
Doosan Infracore, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of construction equipment, already uses Scania’s engines in its range of wheel loaders, excavators and articulated dump trucks.
“We are delighted to announce that we are now extending our cooperation with Doosan into the power generation segment,” says Peter Sundell, key account manager at Scania Engines.
Doosan Portable Power’s G400 generator is fitted with a Scania DC13, with 400 kVA prime power. Meanwhile, the G500 is fitted with a Scania DC16 with 500 kVA prime power. The G500 will be on display during Bauma, at Doosan Portable Power’s stand.
“Choosing Scania’s engines for these new generators is a logical step in our already existing and fruitful collaboration with the company and aligns with the strategy of the Doosan group,” said Pascal Duponcheele, Product Manager for generators and lighting systems in the EMEA region at Doosan Portable Power.
“We have tested Scania’s engines in our products and they meet up to our expectations when it comes to reliability, outstanding performance and high fuel efficiency. This way, we continue to work together with Scania to create value for our customers.”
