Rehlko has announced the global launch of its new KD series 60–600kW generators, expanding its flagship KD series family to deliver unmatched reliability and performance for critical backup power. The launch comes at a time of growing demand for energy resilience, driven by grid instability, extreme weather events, and the rising need for dependable power.
Hervé Prigent, Rehlko’s vice presidentof marketing and power systems, said: “The KD series has always been our benchmark for excellence. This next chapter represents years of vision, engineering, and commitment to our distributors and customers.”
Steve Lynch, Rehlko’s category director for small engines, added: “This expansion brings together world-class components under our own brand, reliability that the market has been asking for, and a service ecosystem that creates long-term value.”
With this addition, Rehlko now offers a complete KD series lineup from 60kW to over 4MW — a product family already trusted across some of the world’s most demanding industries, including data centres.
Charles Hunsucker, Rehlko’s president of power systems, said: “This launch marks a pivotal moment for Rehlko. It reinforces our leadership in backup power solutions and demonstrates our continued investment in expanding the KD series range to serve a diverse array of applications — from small businesses and telecommunications to healthcare facilities and industrial operations. This extension reflects our commitment to delivering dependable, scalable, and innovative energy systems that meet the evolving needs of our global customer base.”
Every KD series unit is pushed beyond industry standards before leaving the factory. Generators undergo vibration trials, rain and ingress protection tests, thermal balance validation, and full load acceptance. Each model meets ISO 8528-5 G3 certification for power quality — the highest standard for load response in the industry. Each KD series generator is designed and tested to meet regional regulatory and safety standards, ensuring reliable performance across diverse markets.
Rehlko delivers one global standard with local execution through its direct offices and a network of over 220 distributor partners present in every continent and most countries. Customers can access stocked parts within 24 to 48 hours and factory-trained technicians on site within hours, ensuring uptime no matter where they operate.
The KD series 60–600kW range will begin distribution in Q1 2026, with availability expanding globally throughout the year. Lead times will continue to shorten as regional stocking programmes come online through Rehlko’s local distributor network.
