Powering Reliable and Flexible Utility Generation
Utilities and Independent Power Producers (IPPs) must deliver dependable, affordable, and cleaner energy to communities and industries. As electricity demand grows and renewable sources become a larger part of the grid, utilities need generation assets that are both efficient and flexible. Bergen medium-speed engines provide that balance. Our power generation solutions combine proven reliability with the agility needed for today’s changing energy landscape.
Utilities operate in one of the most demanding environments in the energy sector. They must balance increasing power demand with aging infrastructure, stricter emissions targets, and the unpredictable output of renewable generation. Projects that once ran for decades with little change now need to evolve quickly to stay competitive and compliant.
With nearly 40 years supporting global utilities, Bergen Engines understands these pressures and the importance of power generation assets that can adapt, scale, and perform with consistency under any grid condition.
Proven Reliability
Why Utilities Choose Bergen
Bergen Engines help utilities and IPPs build a more flexible, efficient, and sustainable grid. Our medium-speed gas and dual-fuel engines deliver fast response, high efficiency, and proven durability. They are ideal for both baseload and peaking power, grid balancing, and distributed generation.
- High Efficiency: Up to 48% electrical efficiency in simple-cycle operation. Availability above 98% across installed fleet
- Operational Flexibility: Start, stop, and ramp up quickly to stabilize grids with high renewable penetration.
- Lower Emissions: Advanced combustion and lean-burn technology help meet global environmental standards.
- Modular Design: Plants can be built in scalable units that grow with demand.
- CHP Capability: Combine electricity and heat generation to maximize total energy efficiency.
These advantages allow utilities to maintain reliable, cost-effective generation while supporting the energy transition.
Modular Design for Scalable Power
Every power project has different capacity needs, budgets, and timelines. Bergen Engines’ modular power plant concept allows utilities to start small and expand as demand grows.
Each engine operates as an independent generation unit, which means plants can be scaled up by adding modules without major redesign or downtime. The compact footprint, pre-engineered balance-of-plant systems, and standardized layout also make installation faster and more predictable.
For utilities and IPPs, this flexibility translates to lower upfront investment, shorter project lead times, and simpler expansion planning whether building a new plant or upgrading existing infrastructure.
