Himoinsa shows solutions approach
Himoinsa and FAMCO hold energy solutions event
Spanish genset manufacturer Himoinsa and FAMCO, its local distributor in UAE, Saudi and Qatar, have held an event to inform engineering companies about the energy solutions available for special projects.
The event called on major construction, telecommunications and engineering companies operating on major projects in the Middle East, and the UAE Ministry of Public Works was represented by the technicians of its engineering and projects department.
The main focus was on special projects, with power generation plants, hybrid systems, gas power generation, and variable speed gensets described by company representatives. Keith Webb, general manager of Himoinsa Middle East, says that these projects that Himoinsa is working on allow it to offer comprehensive solutions to its customers.
Jean Luc Rolland, senior project manager at Himoinsa Middle East, and Massimo Brotto, business development manager at Himoinsa, responded to questions from the audience regarding how the ideal generator set is chosen for each project, the size, power, settings, as well as the necessary adjustments to ensure maximum performance in each environmental situation.
The event was attended by companies including Fujairah Rock and Aggregate, Metito, AF Engineering, Al Hamad Group Sharjah, Al lttihad Electro Mechanical, DU, Thermo LLC, Al Mansoori Production Services, CCC, Clarke Samadhin Associates, Petrofac, MARS Equipment Co., Raj Stones, Airtech A/C system, FNCT. These companies all operate on projects in extreme environments, and as such demand high quality generator sets, which are resistant to high temperatures and climates with high levels of humidity, noted Terry McGuire, regional general manager – Power & Industrial Products Division, at Al-Futtaim Auto & Machinery Co. LLC (FAMCO)
FAMCO has been selling Himoinsa in the region for four years. Himoinsa has a production capacity of 60,000 units a year, manufacturing generator sets with a wide power range from 3 to 3,000 kVA.
