Generators for Government Operations
From airports and capital buildings to defense and emergency response, millions of people depend upon government infrastructure and services. Even a brief power outage can inconvenience visitors or present a significant safety risk.
With support from Coastal Power & Equipment, your government application will have the continuous power needed to serve its constituency. We offer an impressive selection of new and used diesel- and natural gas-driven stationary and towable generators as well as reliable parts and maintenance services.

Why Generators Matter
Many things can cause power loss, from a grid failure to a natural disaster. For specific government entities, foreign countries or terrorist groups may also seek to cut off the electricity to disrupt operations.
From a safety and security perspective, the loss of electrical power could impact vital systems, secure data, and sensitive instrumentation. Employees may not be able to use their electronic badges or equipment, while those displaced by a disaster may be without shelter.
Consequently, reliable backup generators are essential for many government applications.
