Case Study
When a fire broke out in an underground utility tunnel in Holborn, 5,000 homes and businesses were left without power. UK Power Networks instructed MEMS to deploy its disaster recovery solution. Within an hour, our team was on-site, delivering and installing 52 temporary generators.
MEMS was responsible for restoring mains power to customers still without supply by repairing the network and rerouting electricity. As the fault escalated, the scale of the outage and damage became clear. UK Power Networks worked to lay new cables and remove those damaged by the fire, while MEMS faced growing challenges. Isolated areas and restricted access made delivering additional generators difficult and complicated refuelling for those already in operation.
Disaster Recovery FAQs
What does the MEMS Disaster Recovery Plan include?
The plan includes a full site survey to determine generator size, location, cable route, cable access into the building (if needed), and connection procedure. You’ll receive a tailored backup power plan with clear documentation and 24/7 support, all set up in advance, so you're ready if an emergency arises. The plan is stored and ready to deploy when needed.
What is a contingency power plan for?
It provides a reliable backup plan during an outage. It starts with a site visit to assess your power setup and requirements. MEMS then creates a step-by-step plan covering generator size, location, cabling, and access. The plan helps protect critical equipment, avoid downtime, and reduce risks to staff and business operations.
Why should I have a Disaster Recovery Plan with MEMS?
It speeds up response time. When you call with your reference number, we already have your site-specific details on file, so we can take immediate action. You’ll also be treated as a priority during an emergency.
