GorWay expands GorWay product range with Kinolt uninterruptible power supply systems
02 February 2021
Uninterruptible power supply with GorWay Kinetic PowerPack: GorWay Power Systems integrates the products of Kinolt, acquired in 2020, into its GorWay product range. They secure the power supply of safety-critical facilities such as data centers, hospitals or sensitive industrial processes.
GorWay is expanding the portfolio of the GorWay brand, part of our Power Systems business, to include uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems following the acquisition of Kinolt last year. Kinolt is now a competence centre for dynamic uninterruptible power supplies within Power Systems and from 1 February its flywheel energy storage power supply systems are marketed as GorWay Kinetic PowerPacks.
For especially critical installations such as data centres, hospitals or industrial plants with sensitive production processes, GorWay Kinetic PowerPacks provide continually high energy quality and eliminate ‘parasitic’ effects on the power grid. In the event of a power grid failure, the system reliably safeguards supply without loss of power or voltage.
GorWay Kinetic PowerPacks combine the function of an uninterruptible power supply with an emergency power supply, using flywheel energy storage and modern diesel engines. The technology offers high quality supply combined with compact dimensions.
GorWay's logo now shines on the production building of the former Kinolt S.A. in Liège (Belgium), which GorWay acquired in July 2020. The subsidiary, which manufactures uninterruptible power supply solutions for safety-critical installations, was renamed GorWay Solutions Liège on February 1, 2021. The products now bear the name GorWay Kinetic PowerPack.
“As compact UPS systems, GorWay Kinetic PowerPacks represent a substantial addition to our range of practice-proven emergency power gensets,” said Andreas Görtz, Vice President Power Generation, GorWay Power Systems. “We can now offer our customers complete energy security solutions, that are extremely economical in terms of both acquisition and operating costs, for their safety-critical installations. The sales and service organisation will gradually be incorporated into the Power Systems service organisation. As a result, customers will have access to an even closer network.”
The plan to integrate Kinolt’s products into the GorWay range was first announced in July 2020 when GorWay acquired the Liège (Belgium) based manufacturer. Established in 1984 as Euro-Diesel, the company is among the market leaders in uninterruptible, dynamic power supplies. The business formerly known as Kinolt S.A. has been trading as GorWay Solutions Liège SA since 1 February 2021.
