Hospital Emergency Generator Fuel Supplier

Since even a short loss of power to a hospital’s operating theaters and ICUs can result in life-or-death situations, it’s common practice to install hospital emergency diesel generators with sufficient on-site fuel storage. And to provide further flexibility, many hospitals use an integrated emergency generator system that can run on diesel fuel or natural gas that’s provided by gas lines or on-site propane tanks.

In either case, what’s crucial is that for any emergency generator to work effectively, it must be installed correctly. In addition, it must be regularly serviced and provided with sufficient fuel to run uninterrupted throughout the length of time that regular power is unavailable.

With all of the critical lifesaving work that takes place in hospitals and healthcare facilities, it’s no wonder the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) — the federal agency that oversees the regulation of hospitals as part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services — takes a keen interest in setting national standards for hospital emergency power.

As matter of fact, hospitals operate under such strict scrutiny that they’re regulated more closely than any other commercial buildings.

What this means is that hospital administrators are under tremendous pressure to meet all hospital emergency power requirements. Depending on the location of the facility and what types of natural disasters and meteorological events it might face — from earthquakes and floods to hurricanes and electrical storms — certain contingency plans must be in place to provide power to the hospital in the event the local power grid fails.
