The Future of Fuel Management in UN Operations
From the deserts of Africa to the mountainous terrain of Asia, a reliable power supply is a lifeline for any peacekeeping operations. In these remote locations, where electricity grids are often non-existent, fuel-powered generators are essential for keeping critical systems running. Across 11 missions, the UN relies on a fleet of over 8,600 generators to power everything from life-saving medical facilities and clean water systems to secure communications networks and logistics hubs that keep peacekeepers connected and effective.

Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) System changeover project
This significant changeover brings enhanced power redundancy and operational resilience for not only peace operations, but also for the entire UN Secretariat, and agencies, funds and programmes.
Each UPS unit offers 300-500KW of scalable power, with a total capacity of 1800KW – enough to handle the peak demand of a few hundred average-sized homes simultaneously – and integrates seamlessly with our #FRIM platform for real-time monitoring.
