AMPS

EXACTLY WHAT IS AMPS?

MPS is a widely recognised professional trade body and the industry voice for the UK genset sector and associated Products. AMPS stands A for the Association of Manufacturers and suppliers of Power generating Systems and ancillary equipment. The Association represents our industry with major regulatory bodies such as Ofgem, BEIS, DEFRA, Environment Agency etc. and facilitates lobbying for the industry at Government level.

We also engage with other associated trade bodies such as BEIS, DTI, ACE, ADE, ECA, EIA, EIC, CEA, CPA, Dept. for International Trade etc. The AMPS Council guides and makes key decisions on behalf of the Association’s membership and is formed of elected representatives of member companies. The Council meet several times a year, but members also attend sub-committee meetings and are often working hard behind the scenes to plan and work to better the aims of the Association.

A number of events including Conference, Awards Evening, Golf Day and more are held annually with opportunities for networking and building business relationships extended to all members.

The AMPS Technical Committee (TC) is at the forefront of industry knowledge and is also composed of a wide range of volunteers who give their time and knowledge to assist the membership as well as sitting on a range of national and international committees to guide and help set industry standards and regulations. It leads on regulation and legislation to change policy and provide guidance on issues such as Emissions, Changes to fuel composition, Grid Codes and Compliance, through its reputation and influence at Government level.

The aim of the AMPS Technical Committee is to provide AMPS members with clear technical guidance on those issues that are relevant to their businesses and to provide access to industry experts who can provide advice on technical matters.

Through its involvement with National and International standards bodies, Government and regulatory authorities, it aims to represent AMPS members interests and to influence, communicate and understand the relevant technical standards for our industry.

Regular updates and communications are presented in a simplified and easy-to-understand manner via Current Thinking newsletters.

A dedicated secretariat look after the day to day running of the Association overseen by the Vice President and regular updates, news and communications including AMPS Power magazine are published quarterly.

WHO CAN JOIN AMPS? AMPS members are leading designers, manufacturers, suppliers and installers of reciprocating diesel and gas engine electrical generating systems of a single unit output up to 5MW. This equipment has a broad spectrum of applications which include industrial, commercial, military, marine and offshore installations for standby and base load electrical power, landfill gas projects, co-generation / combined heat and power systems, complete power stations and major turnkey power generation projects. They are supported by manufacturers and suppliers of a wide variety of ancillary equipment.

Here's an overview of who we represent, whether you’re interested in becoming a member yourself, or would just like a clearer understanding: Manufacturers – The UK has lost a lot of its manufacturing over recent decades but when it comes to buying the best generating sets and components customers around the world still value the unrivalled quality, reliability and attention to detail that comes from knowing their equipment was manufactured in the UK by passionate and experienced engineers.

Suppliers & Distributors – AMPS’ power generation suppliers provide the components the manufacturers need and/or the assembled sets the end-user requires, along with an invaluable wealth of expertise and industry know-how.

Service providers – How do you know which generating set you need? How do you get the right paperwork? How do you ensure your generating sets work when they’re really needed? We have a large number of members who provide advice, consultancy, installation and maintenance, because even the best generating set in the world will fail if it isn’t properly specified and serviced.

Rental Companies – Not everyone needs generating set power all of the time. From World Cup Finals to music festivals, from building sites to hurricane relief, the rental providers are there to supply customers with whatever temporary power solution they may need.

Related providers – Whether you need a solution for cleaning stored fuel, a fire suppression system or want your generating set to work as part of a CHP system, we have members who specialise in all the related products and services.
