Commercial & Industrial Standby Power

Industrial Standby Power for Businesses

Power outages have surged a staggering 64% during the past decade, leaving businesses vulnerable. The median cost of downtime is a lofty $12,500.00 per day for small businesses. That figure ranges much higher for larger businesses.

Don't let your business go dark. Benchmark Electric has partnered with Cummins Power Generation to keep your business running smooth during power outages.

Commercial & Industrial standby power is "must-have" equipment critical to keeping productivity levels going strong without interruption when the power grid fails. Think of it as business interruption insurance on steroids ... and without having to file a claim.

Benefits of Standby Power:

  • Critical Systems Continue to Run including computers, point-of-sale, and security systems.
  • Prevent Loss of Inventory - refrigeration and freezers continue to run and prevent the loss of perishable inventory.
  • Keep the Doors Open and the lights on, even during widespread power outages.
  • Protect Revenue and Customer Flow by preventing gaps in your revenue stream and instilling customer confidence that your business is always reliable.

Benchmark Electric has been installing standby power systems for businesses and local government buildings since its inception in 2004. We offer the best in standby power from Cummins Power Generation - a world leader in power generation equipment.

Commercial & Industrial Diesel Generators Get the Job Done

Benchmark Electric partnered with Cummins Power Generation because (1) Cummins sets the industry standard for diesel technology and (2) its power solutions are anchored in a legacy of over 100 years of innovation.

Cummins diesel generators meet the growing demand for efficient and sustainable power on a world-wide scale. The design, manufacture, and testing of major components work together and in unison from the start.

Each of the major components of Cummins generator sets - the engine, alternator, and controls - are manufactured, tested, and serviced by Cummins at its U.S.-based manufacturing facilities in Fridley, Minnesota.

This integrated approach ensures every solution is:

  • Reliable - and designed for dependability
  • Compact - the right power and size with no compromises
  • Fuel Efficient - produces more horsepower per gallon of fuel. Fuel cost per kilowatt produced is 30%-50% less than gaseous engines.
  • Technologically Advanced - engineered with sustainability and low-emissions
  • Durable - designed to operate in extreme environmental conditions including cold weather starts down to -40°F.
  • Designed for Longevity - when professionally serviced and maintained, diesel generators will operate for decades.
