High-Capacity Generator Hire from Loadgen


When you need a substantial temporary power supply, a 1250 kVA diesel generator can provide the capacity required for demanding commercial, industrial and critical power applications. At Loadgen, we provide generator hire solutions for businesses and organisations that need dependable power during planned maintenance, construction, infrastructure works, emergencies and other periods when mains electricity is unavailable or needs additional support.

With more than 75 years of combined experience across our specialist engineering team, we understand that hiring a large generator involves much more than choosing a kVA rating. The generator needs to be correctly sized for the application, safely delivered and installed, properly commissioned and supported throughout the hire period.


Whether you need a 1250 kVA diesel generator hire solution for a planned project or require high-capacity emergency power, our team can help assess your requirements and recommend a suitable solution.

What Is a 1250 kVA Diesel Generator?


A 1250 kVA generator is a high-capacity diesel generating set designed to supply electrical power for applications with significant load requirements. The 1250 kVA rating describes the generator’s apparent power capacity. The actual usable output depends on factors including the generator’s power factor, connected equipment and how the load operates.


This is why generator selection should not be based solely on the headline kVA figure. A professional electrical load assessment can establish how much power your site requires and identify equipment that may have higher starting loads.


A 1250 kVA diesel generator may be suitable for applications including large commercial premises, industrial facilities, construction projects, data centres, infrastructure works and major events. The precise configuration required will depend on the site and electrical system.

Important: Generator Size Is Not One-Size-Fits-All

A 1250 kVA generator should not be selected simply because the number appears to match your estimated requirements. Connected equipment, starting loads, voltage, power factor and site conditions can all affect the generator you need. Loadgen can carry out a professional electrical load assessment to help determine the appropriate solution.

When Might You Need a 1250 kVA Generator?


High-capacity generator hire can be useful where a standard rental generator does not provide enough output for the connected load.
Typical applications include:

  • Planned electrical maintenance and shutdowns
  • Emergency backup following mains power failure
  • Large construction and infrastructure projects
  • Industrial and manufacturing facilities
  • Data centres and other critical facilities
  • Large events and temporary installations
  • Power requirements during electrical upgrades
  • Temporary power where permanent mains electricity is unavailable


For particularly demanding sites, Loadgen can assess the electrical requirements before recommending an appropriate generator arrangement.

1250 kVA Diesel Generator Fuel Consumption


One of the most common considerations when hiring a large generator is 1250 kVA diesel generator fuel consumption. However, there is no single fuel consumption figure that applies to every application.
Fuel consumption varies according to the generator specification and, importantly, the load placed on the generator. A generator operating at a relatively low load will use fuel differently from one operating close to its rated capacity. The duration of operation, operating conditions and generator configuration can also affect fuel requirements.


Loadgen can help plan fuel requirements as part of your generator hire package. Our fuel management services can help ensure your generator has the fuel it needs throughout the hire period, reducing the risk of an unexpected interruption.

Good to Know: Fuel Consumption

Fuel consumption depends on the generator specification and the electrical load placed on the equipment. A generator operating at different load levels will have different fuel requirements. Loadgen can help plan fuel requirements and provide ongoing fuel management throughout your hire period.

1250 kVA Generator Hire with a Complete Service

Hiring a large generator involves careful planning. At Loadgen, our service can include:

  • Site surveys and electrical load assessments
  • Generator sizing recommendations
  • Delivery using our dedicated fleet
  • Professional installation and commissioning
  • Load testing before the generator goes live
  • Fuel management and telemetry monitoring
  • Preventative servicing throughout the hire
  • Technical support and emergency assistance

Our own delivery fleet includes flatbed, crane and towable vehicles, allowing us to manage the transportation of our equipment directly. This is particularly useful when dealing with large generator sets where site access, positioning and lifting requirements need to be considered in advance.

Choosing the Right 1250 kVA Diesel Generator

The right generator depends on much more than the required output. Before arranging a 1250 kVA diesel generator hire, it is important to consider the site’s electrical infrastructure, voltage requirements, connected equipment, starting loads, operating conditions, access and expected duration of use.
Loadgen’s engineers can discuss these requirements with you and carry out the necessary assessment before equipment is supplied. This helps ensure the selected generator is appropriate for the application and can operate reliably throughout the hire.

1250 kVA Used Diesel Generators

Businesses searching for 1250 kVA used diesel generators may be considering purchasing a large generator for long-term use. Used equipment can involve additional considerations, including age, operating hours, maintenance history, condition, testing and ongoing servicing requirements.

If your requirement is temporary, hiring a generator can provide access to high-capacity equipment without the long-term considerations associated with ownership. Loadgen can discuss both your immediate power requirements and the duration of your project to help establish the most appropriate solution.
