The Challenge

Supply of reliable and affordable hybrid power for the construction of a major tunnel
A major tunnel construction project was needed in Melbourne to ease congestion on a busy traffic network, as well as reduce the number of trucks on residential streets.  
 
The company needed modular, flexible power for their construction project for several months. With construction happening in Metropolitan Melbourne, the builder faced additional limitations in terms of noise regulations and was also constrained by the tight budget.

The Solution

Supply of the best equipment as well as monitoring fuel consumption
 Aggreko recommended a 30 kVA diesel generator paired with a 30 kVA battery hybrid unit running a constant 1 kW 3 phase load to achieve the desired results.

We also remotely monitored their fuel consumption to ensure the timely supply of fuel and avoid delays. The client had an option to monitor the system as well, via the Aggreko Remote Monitoring app.
