Glasgow, Scotland: Aggreko today hosted a delegation from the Argentine Parliament at its global manufacturing and technology facility in Dumbarton. The visit was part of the group’s wider mission to the UK aimed at strengthening political, trade and cultural ties between the two countries, hosted by the British Group of the Inter-Parliamentary Union.
 
As a company with extensive operations across the Argentine energy sector, the visit gave the group the opportunity to see first-hand Aggreko’s R&D programme, to tour the factory floor and witness the production of generating equipment destined for global export markets.
 
Entering Argentina in 2008, Aggreko now employs around 450 local people and operates a fleet of more than 550 MW of generation capacity. This equipment is used to supplement electricity generation for the national grid, as well as supplying power to a diverse range of industrial, mining and oil and gas customers throughout the country.
 
“Argentina is a key strategic market for Aggreko, so it’s extremely valuable to have the opportunity to welcome such an important delegation to our global manufacturing and technology centre,” said Volker Schulte, Director of Manufacturing & Technology, Aggreko plc. “We could showcase our R&D programme and production facility to the visiting parliamentarians, demonstrating our commitment to quality and innovation, while highlighting the skill, experience and passion of our local Dumbarton workforce.”
