Johannesburg, South Africa – 2014 – Agripower, a leading provider of integrated power solutions, has successfully delivered an EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) project for four MTU generator sets as backup power sources for a critical water pumping scheme along the Zambezi River in Zambia. The project was executed in collaboration with South African partner Copper Eagle, with the end client being the local water authority.
Reliable Power for Critical Water Infrastructure
The four MTU generator sets—comprising two AGLM815SB-AC and two AGLM882SB-AC models—were custom-designed to ensure uninterrupted power supply for the water pumping operations. Equipped with high-performance MTU engines (16V2000G63 and 18V2000G63) and AMGx 400C4/400D4 alternators, these units provide robust and efficient standby power in a demanding environment.
Comprehensive EPC Scope
Agripower’s turnkey solution covered:
- Foundation construction for stable generator installation
- Parallel control system programming for seamless synchronization
- On-site installation and commissioning
- Water pipeline integration
- Control panel and electrical wiring
The project underscores Agripower’s expertise in delivering end-to-end power solutions for large-scale infrastructure, particularly in remote and challenging locations.
Strengthening Zambia’s Water Security
Located along the Zambezi River, the pumping scheme plays a vital role in regional water management. Agripower’s backup power systems ensure operational resilience, supporting the local government’s efforts to enhance water supply reliability.
“This project reflects our commitment to engineering excellence and sustainable infrastructure development,” said an Agripower spokesperson. “We are proud to contribute to Zambia’s water security with reliable, high-performance power solutions.”
