Compared to other fuel sources, diesel generators are far cheaper and can save you a considerable amount of money. They tend to have a lower purchase price, and since they have fewer parts to replace regularly – like spark plugs – they also require less maintenance. Diesel generators also have lower part replacement costs than other variants of generators. Although all types require some generator maintenance, diesel power supplies generally need much less.
Diesel generator systems are more fuel efficient than gasoline generators because diesel engines have a higher thermal efficiency. Diesel generators can offer more hours of operation at the same capacity than other options.
That means you can save on fuel costs while still ensuring a reliable, round-the-clock standby uninterruptible power supply. Plus, diesel generators can be powered with easily attained, affordable red diesel.

Diesel generators are reliable and long-lasting. Providing they are maintained correctly, they are much longer lasting than alternative generators. Here at Vital Power, we offer generator maintenance contracts which add residual value to the fuel system. We can help make sure all the parts of your generator are kept in top working condition so your machinery lasts as long as you need it.
Our range of maintenance services are available across the UK, accessible 24/7 and are tailored to individual customer needs.
Compared to petrol counterparts, diesel generators are usually much bigger and heavier. They often contain larger and heavier parts and tanks, which means it can be an inconvenience if you need to transport the generator elsewhere.
However, if you plan your site carefully – with the help of a Vital Power site survey before generator installation – you’ll find the perfect place for your generator and the size won’t be an issue.
Older and cheaper standby diesel generators often cause quite a bit of noise pollution, which can be a disadvantage if you are operating around a well-populated neighbourhood.
However, at Vital Power we stock both high quality generators and silent generators. Our silent generators combine the reliability of a standard diesel generator with the convenience of silent output so you can keep your generator nearby buildings and offices.
Diesel generator installation can involve lots of moving parts and can require an experienced hand.
