250 kVA price context
Where 250 kVA is commonly considered
A 250 kVA set is commonly evaluated for industrial complexes, garments factories, large real-estate projects and commercial facilities. This is only a starting point: actual generator sizing must use the load schedule and starting characteristics.
250 kVA is about 200 kW — but do not size from kW alone
The simple conversion uses 0.8 power factor: 250 kVA × 0.8 ≈ 200 kW. A generator should not normally be selected to run continuously at the edge of its nameplate. Account for diversity, transient starts, non-linear loads, ambient conditions and future growth.
What changes the 250 kVA quotation
Engine brand & model
Ricardo, Cummins, Perkins and other platforms can sit in very different price and support tiers.
Silent vs open
Acoustic canopy design, steelwork, ventilation and weather protection add cost.
Electrical package
Alternator, controller, breaker, ATS and synchronization scope materially affect the offer.
Installation
Cable, exhaust, fuel piping, earthing, civil work, transport and commissioning may be separate.

Frequently asked questions
How many kW is a 250 kVA generator?
At 0.8 power factor, 250 kVA is approximately 200 kW. Actual usable loading depends on the generator rating, load type and operating conditions.
What is the 250 kVA generator price in Bangladesh?
Public-market context reviewed in September 2026 is ৳1,395,000–৳4,295,000. Exact pricing depends on brand, engine model, alternator, controller, canopy and included project scope.
Is 250 kVA enough for my site?
It depends on the measured or calculated load, motor starting, lifts/pumps/compressors, UPS loads, diversity and future expansion. A load schedule is required for a reliable answer.
Should I choose Cummins, Perkins or Ricardo at 250 kVA?
Choose based on the project specification, lifecycle support, budget and exact offered model—not the brand name alone. Compare complete technical schedules.
