Power Services for Utility Providers
Utility companies, city governments, and municipalities provide millions of Americans with the necessary services and infrastructure they need daily. These resources require reliable primary and backup power sources, whether electricity or water.
Without the right systems in place, utility companies are not the only ones that become vulnerable. Loss of power and water can significantly reduce community productivity levels and become a public safety concern.
At Global Power Supply, we understand the importance and value of emergency generators and backup power for municipalities. Planning for the unexpected, including unplanned power outages, can ensure the power stays on.

Backup Power Is Necessary for Municipalities and Utility Companies
Intense, destructive storms are becoming more common, and action is required to maintain reliable power systems.
If a storm causes a citywide power outage, backup systems must be available.
Generators and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems are critical for:
- Public facilities and buildings that provide essential services, such as schools, police stations, town halls, and hospitals.
- Water supply companies and water treatment facilities.
- Energy and power suppliers, including power plants or any other company that generates/provides power.
Global Power Supply offers a large selection of backup power generators and UPS systems. These solutions and services ensure backup power for city services like water/wastewater and electricity.

The Value of Diesel or Natural Gas Generators
Investing in a diesel or natural gas generator is an effective way to plan for an outage. When paired with an automatic transfer switch (ATS), utility companies can ensure a reliable source of backup power that starts immediately in response to an outage.
If you provide more than 3,300 people with water, a reliable generator can be part of your emergency response plan — something required under America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018 (AWIA)
A generator will ensure electric pumps continue operating as expected if there is an outage. The same applies to essential water purification and sewage treatment equipment.
Each municipality must consider its unique needs and develop custom solutions. For example, a region with a lot of precipitation may require backup generators for stormwater pumps. In other scenarios, routine or maintenance services may force companies to shut off the power, making a generator invaluable to smooth operations.
Global Power Supply is here to help you keep the power on. We are a full-service provider of new and used power systems, stocking industrial prime and standby generators from manufacturers like:
UPS Systems for Utility Companies
An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is critical in any scenario where unexpected power disruptions could result in financial losses, injuries, privacy issues, data loss, etc.
In the case of utility companies, these critical facilities (and their customers) cannot afford downtime.
Global Power Supply provides a specialized UPS study — a comprehensive evaluation of your existing power systems. This study will determine the feasibility and need for a UPS system and then develop an integration strategy.
