Power failures in hospitals can put patient safety, essential equipment, and vital services at immediate risk. With dependable, low-emission hospital power solutions, MEMS helps healthcare teams maintain continuity of care and safeguard patients, staff, and operations when reliability matters most
Protecting UK Hospitals from Power Outages
Power outages in hospitals are more than operational inconveniences, they can quickly escalate into critical emergencies. The loss of electricity can interrupt surgeries, disable monitoring systems, and compromise patient care. Every second counts, and preparedness makes the difference between disruption and safety.
MEMS Power Generation supports hospitals and healthcare facilities with rapid-response, temporary power solutions designed for resilience. Our generator hire and backup systems safeguard essential services, maintain life-support equipment, and keep wards, theatres, and diagnostics fully operational, ensuring patient safety and staff confidence, even during unexpected outages.
Hospital Power Solutions Case Study: Preventing an Outage at a Private London Hospital
When one of the UK’s leading independent healthcare providers faced a potential hospital power failure, MEMS Power Generation was called upon to deliver immediate support. The team supplied temporary standby power to a private London hospital, allowing essential repairs to be carried out on its malfunctioning backup generator without any disruption to patient care.
The hospital also operates three specialised neurological rehabilitation centres, supporting residents with complex conditions that rely on uninterrupted power for vital equipment and care. MEMS’ ability to respond swiftly and deliver reliable temporary power for hospitals was instrumental in keeping every service running safely and seamlessly.

FAQS: Generator hire for Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities
How fast can MEMS deliver temporary power to a hospital during an emergency?
Fast!
Our 24/7 staffed control room responds immediately to hospital emergencies. MEMS aims to be on-site within four hours from instruction, depending on location. We’re built for speed and precision, especially when patient care depends on it.
How long can MEMS provide backup power for a hospital?
MEMS can maintain hospital operations for as long as required, days, weeks, months or even years. With 24/7 monitoring, fuel management, and full logistical support, our temporary power systems ensure continuous care delivery throughout planned maintenance or unexpected outages.
Does MEMS provide remote monitoring for hospital power systems?
Yes. Through MEMS Connect, our remote monitoring platform, we deliver real-time performance data, diagnostics, and alerts. This ensures reliable operation, proactive maintenance, and complete peace of mind for healthcare teams managing critical infrastructure.
Can MEMS help reduce generator emissions for hospitals and healthcare facilities?
Yes. MEMS integrates Battery Energy Storage (BES) technology with our generator systems to reduce fuel use and emissions. Our hybrid solutions can cut carbon output by over 40% while maintaining full operational performance, helping hospitals meet sustainability goals without compromising reliability.
How can a hospital prepare for a power outage?
By developing a MEMS Disaster Recovery Plan. This plan prioritises restoring essential power to safeguard patient care and critical hospital systems. If you don’t yet have a recovery strategy, our specialists can assess your site and design a tailored plan to meet your backup power requirements.
