Due to the ever-increasing demand for power, and the shortages in the grid, consumers in certain areas have to face power shortage. We have been instrumental in providing power to these distressed consumers often within the shortest possible time.

The Process

The supply of power to the grid is accomplished by hooking on mobile power units installed at the power plant. Project engineers from Kanoo P&IP then conduct preliminary survey of the site and load requirements by forming an effective interface with the utility companies. After the feasibility study, a proposal is made for the required power and accordingly the mobile units are moved to the site with all necessary accessories, spares for installation etc. There are resident engineers at the site to monitor the vital parameters and to undertake scheduled maintenance work, in order to ensure optimum power generation.

Power rental solutions are offered through:

  • Containerised Diesel Gensets
  • Small Gas Turbines
  • Small Steam Turbines
  • Microturbines
Currently, Kanoo P&IP operates over 100MW in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
