We have done quite a few episodes on genset maintenance, monitoring, and being able to forecast engine failure or repair. Today we want to talk about what happens when your engine reaches its end of life. Now that could be for a number of reasons: first, it's reached the end of its depreciation cycle and you simply want to replace it, secondly a lack of maintenance has allowed the engine to fail, and lastly perhaps it's had a good life and it's now time of a complete overhaul, which in some cases can be quite costly. To help us explore these different options and introduce us to a really cool new option, I've asked Hafiz Shiraz to join us.
