May 23, 2012 - PRLog -- Cat Entertainment Services Named Global Service Provider for Major International Events

Caterpillar Inc. has designated Cat® Entertainment Services as a global service provider of temporary power generation and temperature control equipment for major international events and production projects.

Since establishment in 2000, Cat Entertainment Services has provided turnkey power generation, distribution and high-volume temperature control solutions for thousands of sporting and special events; concerts, tours and music festivals; film, video and broadcast productions; and conventions, conferences and expositions in North America and around the world.

Cat Entertainment Services will work collaboratively with the Cat Rental Power network to supply sound-attenuated, emissions-certified generators and power modules, with complete on-site installation, monitoring, transportation, fuel service and factory-trained personnel for every event. Electrical and HVAC equipment is adaptable to local geographic and technical environments and operates at both 60- and 50-Hz power requirements. Cat Entertainment Services provides efficient, environmentally sensitive equipment including its own innovative uninterruptible power supply technology, which broadcasts may require, and that further limits their carbon footprint. Cat Entertainment Services also offers project-specific engineering solutions, comprehensive site surveys, technical drawings and event planning assistance. Cat Rental Power dealers will continue to provide rentals and customer support for local and regional events within their respective territories.

“Cat Entertainment Services is a leader in providing temporary power generation and temperature control for events, broadcasts and the movie industry in North America,” said Bill Rohner, Caterpillar vice president with responsibility for the electric power division. “Caterpillar is excited to support Cat Entertainment Services as it expands its role in the major international events market.”
