Woolworths Group stands as a leading supermarket chain in Australia, operating over 1,000 stores and holding 38% of the grocery market share. Ensuring a seamless supply chain, Woolworths manages distribution centres that serve as hubs for efficient receiving, storing, and distribution of goods.
In Sydney's fresh food distribution centre, three HIMOINSA HTW-2030 T5 40’ containerised gensets are central to this operation. This installation is part of a $400 million investment to modernise its New South Wales (NSW) supply chain. Spanning 76,000 square meters, the facility distributes over 3,700 fresh produce and chilled lines, serving more than 280 stores in NSW, enhancing operational efficiency significantly.
Consistent power supply is crucial for the daily operations of the distribution centre, specifically for critical functions like refrigeration, automation, and security. Handling perishable goods such as fresh produce, meat, and dairy demands strict temperature control. Essential facilities like lighting, conveyor belts, and automated sorting systems rely heavily on uninterrupted electricity to function safely.
Power outages can lead to spoiled inventory, halted deliveries, labour inefficiencies, and significant delays in goods management processes. Surges can also damage costly machinery, resulting in financial losses. HIMOINSA gensets provide reliable backup power, ensuring smooth power transitions, safeguarding equipment, and maintaining continuous operations 24/7.
DOUBLE ASSURANCE
- Mitsubishi Engine with Governor: To regulate fuel supply, governors on the gensets ensure reliable and precise control of engine speed regardless of load changes, offering exceptional reliability.
- Alternator with Anti-Condensation Heaters: In Sydney's humid, subtropical climate, anti-condensation heaters maintain internal temperatures above dew points, preventing moisture damage to alternator components.
- Soundproofing Solution: Customised to meet Woolworths' noise emission requirements, HIMOINSA utilises high-density volcanic rock wool within ISO-approved containers for superior soundproofing and thermal insulation.
Our customer's trust in our expertise, premium gensets, and reliable services reflects in this partnership. Equipped with a seasoned team, HIMOINSA Australia delivers comprehensive power solutions, from project initiation to aftersales maintenance, ensuring long-lasting operational efficiency.
Furthermore, another four units of HTW-2295 T5 medium voltage gensets, totaling 8 MW of emergency power, are being assembled at HIMOINSA's manufacturing plant to support ongoing operations soon.
