Located in Buenos Aires, Powgen Diesel specializes in corporate, marine, and domestic power solutions and has more than three decades of experience manufacturing generator sets, generator plants, motor pumps, and lighting towers. "We focus on ensuring the continuity of daily activities of companies and individuals, and boosting big energy projects in the community," explains Norberto Galarraga, executive director.
Galarraga takes pride in the engineering and technical support Powgen Diesel offers customers through its service department. "Our engineers and technicians are highly trained and have specific experience in the different areas involved in each project," he says. The company also has its own telemetry department that monitors generator sets while they are operating in the field to ensure maximum uptime.
An engine with a simple design that is reliable even in extreme working conditions is something Galarraga can appreciate. Since 1998, he's found these qualities in John Deere diesel engines.

John Deere engines have proven themselves in more than 1,000 Powgen generator sets across Argentina over the past two decades. Galarraga recalls a 45-kVA mobile generator powered by a John Deere 4.5L engine working at a high-elevation gold mine in the Andes. "The generator set fell 300 meters (984 feet) down the side of a mountain. The company, Barrick Gold, brought the generator set in for repair, and the engine was still fully operational."
Aligning with a company that has similar values helped forge a strong relationship that spans two decades. "Our company shares many of the same values and principles as John Deere, and that makes it easy to work together," says Galarraga.
