Single-Phase Energy for a Construction Site

Single-Phase Generator - Medium Construction Site

Site Setup:

  • 2x 32ft Offices

  • 1x 32ft Canteen

  • 1x 20ft Drying Room

  • 1x Toilet Block

  • 1x Diesel Pump

  • Security Cameras

Challenge

This 12-month project required a dependable power source to manage diverse site facilities while reducing costs and environmental impact. Managing power efficiently for 24/7 operation, including security systems, was a top priority.

Solution

A single-phase hybrid generator equipped with 20kWh of battery storage and 2.7kW solar capacity was deployed. The built-in energy management system minimized dependency on the diesel engine by leveraging renewable energy and stored power during low-demand hours.

Outcome

  • Generator Efficiency: Run times significantly reduced, saving operational costs.

  • Sustainability Impact: Lower carbon emissions due to improved fuel optimization.

  • Silent Operation: Quiet power enabled optimal working conditions and a more eco-friendly impression for clients and visitors.

Key Takeaway

Compact, single-phase hybrid solutions can power medium-scale construction sites effectively, balancing operational needs with cost-efficiency and sustainability objectives.
