Units available: 2
**Note that price is per unit

This new Caterpillar G3516 natural gas generator is one of the most sought-after reciprocating generator sets available in the Asian market today, and this unit represents a rare opportunity to acquire factory-fresh, zero-hour power generation equipment through USP&E Global's exclusive inventory. Rated at 1.4 MW and manufactured in 2018, this unit operates at 50 Hz and 400 volts, making it fully compatible with grid standards across the majority of Asian and international markets. With zero hours on the frame, this asset is in new condition, untouched and unrun, ready for immediate deployment into demanding operational environments. The new Caterpillar G3516 natural gas generator is optimised for peak shaving and combined heat and power applications, two of the fastest-growing segments in distributed energy across Asia and frontier markets globally. This is an exclusive USP&E asset listed under stock number USP011019 and cannot be found through any other channel, broker, or marketplace.

The Caterpillar G3516 is a proven, industry-standard reciprocating engine generator set from one of the world's most trusted power equipment manufacturers. At 1.4 MW output, this unit sits in the sweet spot for site-level peak shaving applications where the goal is to reduce demand charges and smooth consumption peaks without requiring large-scale grid infrastructure upgrades. As a 400V 50Hz natural gas generator set, this machine integrates cleanly into low-voltage industrial and commercial distribution systems, and its natural gas fuel type delivers both lower emissions and reduced fuel logistics compared to diesel or heavy fuel oil alternatives. For combined heat and power applications, the Caterpillar G3516 is particularly well suited because its engine heat rejection profile allows for efficient thermal energy recovery, meaning operators can simultaneously generate electricity and capture usable heat for process heating, space heating, or absorption cooling, dramatically improving overall system efficiency and reducing energy costs. This new gas generator set for peak shaving is the right scale for hospitals, hotels, industrial facilities, food processing plants, data centres, and commercial campuses across Asia that need reliable, on-site power with the flexibility to export surplus or manage demand intelligently. The zero-hour condition of this unit means that the first owner takes delivery of a machine with full remaining service life, full manufacturer warranty eligibility, and no legacy maintenance liabilities of any kind.

USP&E Global brings far more to this transaction than the asset itself. As a multinational EPC and O&M company with over 150 completed power station projects across 45 countries, USP&E is uniquely positioned to take a buyer from asset acquisition through to full operational power station, handling every phase of the project lifecycle under a single contract. This new Caterpillar G3516 natural gas generator can be deployed as a standalone unit or integrated into a larger multi-unit power plant configuration, and USP&E's engineering teams are experienced in civil works, fuel supply infrastructure, balance of plant, electrical integration, and grid connection for exactly this type of 400V 50Hz natural gas generator set. USP&E offers full turnkey power plant EPC contracting, meaning procurement, logistics, transport, installation, testing, and commissioning are all handled by a single accountable team rather than left to a buyer to coordinate across multiple vendors. Beyond commissioning, USP&E offers long-term service agreements and gas generator O&M for frontier markets, providing scheduled maintenance, remote monitoring, performance reporting, spare parts management, and emergency response to keep assets like this one running at rated output across demanding geographies where OEM service networks may be thin or unreliable. The combination of a CHP generator set in Asia with USP&E's established regional presence and ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certified operating standards means buyers are not just purchasing a machine but securing a relationship with a contractor capable of delivering and sustaining power at any site, in any market, at any scale. USP&E is also 100% OFAC and FCPA compliant, making it the correct counterparty for government, multilateral, and institutional buyers operating under strict procurement and compliance frameworks.

For any buyer, developer, or procurement team looking to move quickly on a zero-hour, fully deployable asset in Asia, this new Caterpillar G3516 natural gas generator available exclusively through USP&E Global under stock number USP011019 represents one of the strongest value propositions currently on the market for new gas generator sets for peak shaving and CHP applications at the 1.4 MW scale. Inventory of this quality, condition, and specification does not remain available for long.
