Are you looking for a trusted provider of generator hire for data centres? Then you’ve come to the right place. At Loadgen, we understand that uninterrupted power is critical for data centres of every size. Even a short loss of power can result in costly downtime, service disruption and potential data loss, which is why businesses across the UK rely on us for dependable temporary power solutions.

Whether you need diesel generator hire for data centre maintenance, emergency backup following a power failure or temporary power during infrastructure upgrades, our experienced team is ready to help. With more than 75 years of combined industry experience, we provide reliable generator hire backed by expert advice, rapid response and ongoing technical support.

Why Reliable Backup Power Matters


Modern data centres operate around the clock, supporting critical IT infrastructure, cloud services, telecommunications and business operations. While many facilities have resilient power systems in place, planned maintenance, equipment upgrades or unexpected utility failures can still create a need for temporary power.


Our data centre backup power solutions help maintain business continuity by providing dependable electrical supply whenever your permanent systems are unavailable. We work closely with facility managers, electrical contractors and maintenance teams to ensure generators are correctly specified, installed and commissioned with minimal disruption to day-to-day operations.
Whether you’re carrying out scheduled generator maintenance, replacing switchgear, testing electrical infrastructure or preparing for a major project, Loadgen can provide a temporary power solution tailored to your requirements.

What’s Included with Our Generator Hire Service?

Choosing Loadgen means receiving far more than just a generator. Our comprehensive generator hire package includes:

Full site survey and electrical load assessment
Generator sizing recommendations
Safe delivery using our dedicated fleet
Professional installation and commissioning
Load testing before the hire period begins

Our aim is to provide complete peace of mind so your temporary power system performs exactly as expected.

Supporting Planned Maintenance and Emergency Response

Every data centre has different operational requirements, which is why flexibility is so important.

Many customers hire generators during planned maintenance to ensure continuous operation while essential electrical work is completed. Others require emergency assistance following unexpected equipment failure or loss of mains power.

Because we operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, we can respond quickly whenever temporary power is required. Whether your requirement is for a few days, several weeks or an extended project, we can supply reliable temporary power for data centres whenever you need it.
