What the client needed
Our solution
What we delivered
In 2020 PEC took on an EPC contract for 1,305 kWh of VRLA UPS battery systems across CAT's critical sites, from supply through installation and commissioning.
Why PEC
Why this project chose PEC
A state enterprise's procurement runs on certified, audit-ready delivery, and CAT wanted long-life batteries from an established local engineer. PEC's EPC record and its C&D battery line cleared both the paperwork and the on-site acceptance tests.
Outcome
What happened in production
The system has provided backup for CAT's critical communications loads since 2020, handed over with the full commissioning and compliance documentation the client's auditors required.
