1,000 kVA generators

1,000 kVA diesel generator — models, fuel consumption and price.

A 1,000 kVA standby generator delivers about 800 kW at 0.8 power factor (roughly 909 kVA prime). At 75 % load it burns around 126 litres of diesel per hour. BRO Global supplies brand-new 1,000 kVA sets in Saudi Arabia at 60 Hz — open, silent canopy or containerized — with OEM datasheets, manufacturer warranty and a priced offer within 24 hours.

Ratings are typical standby kVA at 0.8 PF (1500 rpm at 50 Hz, 1800 rpm at 60 Hz); prime is shown as standby ÷ 1.1. Exact prime/standby ratings, fuel consumption, dimensions and weight are confirmed in the OEM datasheet issued with your offer. Alternator (Leroy Somer / Stamford) and enclosure are selected on the quote form.

Generator FAQ

1000 kVA — Generator FAQ

How many kW is a 1,000 kVA generator?
At the standard 0.8 power factor, 1,000 kVA equals about 800 kW of usable output. Lighting and IT loads with a higher power factor draw closer to the full kVA; motor-heavy loads draw less.
How much fuel does a 1,000 kVA generator use?
Roughly 126 litres per hour at 75 % load, and about 192 litres per hour at full load, depending on the engine. A base tank of about 1,000 litres gives eight hours of running at 75 % load; larger day tanks and bulk tanks are available.
Should I buy 1,000 kVA standby or prime?
If the set backs up utility power for limited hours a year, size on the standby rating. If it is your main power source — a camp, a remote site, daily use — size on the prime rating, which is about 10 % lower, so the set runs in its 70–90 % sweet spot.
What is the price of a 1,000 kVA generator in Saudi Arabia?
Price depends on the engine brand, enclosure (open, silent, containerized), alternator, controller and options such as ATS and fuel tanks. Send us the specification or choose a model above and we reply with a priced offer in SAR, including VAT and delivery, within 24 hours.
