As part of its dedication to quality and service, IKEAhas made it a point to install large generator sets atthis location to prevent utility outages frominconveniencing its customers or interrupting the flowof business. IKEA turned to Cummins PowerGeneration for help in providing standby powersystems that will keep the lights on and keep thecheck-out lines moving in the event of a power outage.
