Diesel rotary uninterruptible power supply devices (DRUPS) combine the functionality of a battery-powered or flywheel-powered UPS and a diesel generator. When mains electricity supply is within specification, an electrical generator with a mass functions as motor to store kinetic energy in an electro-mechanical flywheel .
A 200 kW Caterpillar diesel generator set in a sound attenuated enclosure used as an emergency backup at a sewage treatment substation in Atlanta, United States. A diesel generator (DG) (also known as a diesel GenSet) is the combination of a diesel engine with an electric generator (often an alternator) to generate electrical energy. [1]

Power was generated using a 6-cylinder Cummins HBI-600 diesel engine producing 150 hp (110 kW) at 1,800 rpm. [6] This engine powered a single GE GT-1503 main generator, which in turn provided electricity to the single rear-mounted GE-733 traction motor which powered the rear axle. Power was provided to the forward axle using a chain drive.
An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator. An engine–generator ...
GE GEVO-16, 16-cylinder engine used in locomotives, such as the GE ES59ACi, [6] GE ES58ACi, [6] GE ES57ACi Diesel Locomotives. HDL series [1] GE 7HDL-16, 16-cylinder engine used in only the GE AC6000CW [7] L250. GE L250 Series, 6- and 8-cylinder marine engines for propulsion and electric generator usage [8] PowerHaul series
ALCO 18-251 V18 engine used as a backup generator at a wastewater plant in Montreal. The inline-6 designs of 800 hp (597 kW) version of the 251 engine replaced the 539 engine in 1954 in Alco's low-end line of power generation packages. The 244 engine was still used in higher-end power generation packages until it too was replaced by 251-engined ...
In 1938, they supplied diesel engines for the New Zealand Railways Standard class railcars. After World War II, they resumed making diesel engines, but with a completely new design this time with direct injection and toroidal cavity pistons. The 6.9 litre 4-cylinder unit gave 85 bhp at 1800rpm, and the 10.35 litre 6-cylinder unit developed 150 ...
