Top 5 engine brands behind the gensets our controllers manage

With more than 100,000 controllers installed worldwide, we work with many genset engines every day.

Behind every reliable genset, there are two brains: the engine’s electronic control unit (ECU), and the controller that runs the whole installation.

Our COMPACT controllers talk directly to the engine ECU. In practice, they:
✅ read engine data in real time (speed, oil pressure, coolant temperature)
✅ display ECU fault codes and turn them into protections
✅ send start/stop and speed commands, depending on the engine

Caterpillar, Cummins, Baudouin, mtu and Perkins are the engine brands we meet most often on the sites where our controllers are at work.

Our top 5 today, out of many. Even more tomorrow.
Our next firmware will open our controllers to an even wider range of engines. Stay tuned.

Now it’s your turn: share a photo of a genset from one of your projects in the comments. Which engine brand powers it?

From Verona to Paris: two weeks on the solar & storage trail

Last week, Aurélia, our Internal Sales Representative, travelled to Solar & Storage Live Verona (October 7–8).

Solar panels and batteries are increasingly paired with generators in hybrid power plants. Meeting the people who build these systems helps us understand what their projects need.

During her trip, Aurélia:
↳ Met Giorgio Cavagnera of EFFETRE FENICE ENERGIA, who recently joined our distributor network
↳ Visited several companies working in solar and energy storage, including UFLEX, a Victron distributor
↳ Shared how our controllers coordinate generators, PV and batteries within a single installation

And the journey continues. Today, our French representative is at Solar & Storage Live Paris for the show’s final day.

📍 Paris Le Bourget Exhibition Centre
📅 October 14–15, 2026

What does it take to turn a controller into a complete power system?

In Pakistan, soaring electricity prices have pushed industry to produce its own power, and solar now runs alongside diesel gensets on many sites. But adding PV is not just a matter of connecting panels. Without the right control philosophy, generators become unstable, burn more fuel and struggle to react when a passing cloud cuts solar output in seconds.

Our representative in Pakistan, Fusion Engineering & Technology (FET), answers this with one principle: engineering before equipment. In their own factory, they design, build, test and commission complete systems with CRE Technology controllers at their core.

In this article, you'll discover:
✅ How FET's in-house manufacturing turns a controller into a complete, tested system
✅ What really changes when PV joins gensets, with the Paradise Spinning project coordinating grid, diesel and solar
✅ Why FET standardised on our COMPACT range, and where our partnership is heading next

From retrofit to commissioning

This week, we hosted the technicians of ADV Altares for a two days of AMF COMPACT training. Their daily work: retrofitting, troubleshooting and commissioning standby gensets, the ones that take over automatically when the grid fails. The objective of these two days: configure an AMF COMPACT from A to Z and commission a mains backup installation.

The program was built around their field needs. Key topics covered:

🔹 AMF COMPACT configuration
🔹 Engine management
🔹 Custom logic with EasyFlex®
🔹 Modbus over Ethernet

Thank you to the ADV Altares team for their commitment and the quality of the exchanges over these two days.

Want your teams to gain the same autonomy? Our training center offers 5 modular packs, from genset fundamentals to hybrid power plants. As with this session, we adapt the content to your applications, in French or in English.

Great partners make great exhibitions.

At Solar & Storage Live UK in Birmingham (22–24 September), the joint Victron Energy & CRE Technology microgrid solution was presented to visitors, and the response was outstanding.

The idea is simple. A microgrid brings several energy sources together, such as solar panels, batteries and generators, in a local network that can run on its own.

Behind this success, there is a strong partnership. Thank you to Victron Energy, BMS Technologies and Callidus Trade for welcoming us, and for making this presentation possible.

See you next year in Birmingham!

From Sophia Antipolis to the Middle East: CRE Technology solutions on show with Lasting Power Generation.

Last week, our partner LPG exhibited at an energy exhibition in the region, with CRE Technology solutions at the heart of their stand.

The result? Strong interest in our hybrid range.

Hybrid power plants combine generators, solar panels and battery storage. Our COMPACT controllers make all these sources work together as one system.

What drew visitors to the stand:
🔹 Live product demonstrations
🔹 Product samples on display
🔹 Brochures, datasheets and technical specifications

This is the strength of our network: 30 distributors worldwide, bringing CRE Technology expertise to local projects. A big thank you to the Lasting Power team, and to every visitor who stopped by.

Working on a hybrid project in the Middle East? Reach out to Lasting Power or contact us 📩 [email protected]

Now over to you: what's the next trade show on your calendar? Let us know where you'd like to meet CRE Technology next.

When the red light is on, our power plant is live.

At our Sophia Antipolis headquarters, this bench has two jobs. Our R&D engineers use it to test and validate our COMPACT controllers in real operating conditions. Our trainers use it to give customers hands-on experience before they go on site.

Same bench, same controllers, different teams. That's what makes it special. Engineers, trainers and support cross paths here every day. A question raised during a training can quickly turn into a discussion with the people who design the products.

With 20% of our revenue reinvested in R&D every year, innovation is a priority at CRE Technology. But it's the people around the bench, and how well they work together, that turn it into reliable solutions for our customers.

Have you already trained on it? Tell us in the comments.

Keep an eye on your power plant, wherever you are with our i4Gen Box

On a rental site, a hybrid plant or a critical backup installation, teams need the same thing: know what is happening and react fast.

i4Gen Box is our remote supervision and control platform for COMPACT controllers. Installed on a DIN rail inside the cabinet, it connects your plant to the Internet and gives your teams full access to it, on site or remotely.

Key benefits:
✅ Reduce site visits thanks to remote access and remote firmware updates
✅ React faster with email and SMS* alerts on alarms and faults
✅ Integrate easily: DIN rail, 8–36 VDC, touchscreen only if needed

From a single genset to a multi-source plant, i4Gen Box gives your operations the visibility and control they need.

Twelve Victron Energy distributors, and one microgrid to put it all into practice

Two weeks ago, we asked how gensets, PV, BESS and the utility grid can run as one power plant without ever dropping the load. On 14 and 15 September, twelve Victron Energy distributors came to Sophia Antipolis to work through the answer.

Foundations first: plant architecture, control logic, and how CRE controllers coordinate every source with the Victron Cerbo GX. Then the second afternoon on our training microgrid: real controllers, real sources, where everything discussed on the whiteboard suddenly has a behaviour you can watch.

What the group leaves with:
✅ A clear method to configure a multi-source plant
✅ Faster commissioning, thanks to plug & play communication between CRE controllers and the Cerbo GX
✅ The ability to explain the solution to their own customers

Thank you to the twelve of you for the questions and the debates. Sessions like this sharpen our teams as much as they train yours.

Our training room in Sophia Antipolis stays open. Distributors, integrators, OEM teams, we build sessions around your architecture and your equipment, in French or in English.
