ConstructionBlue Diamond Machinery completed a power audit and analysis of the site’s power requirements and delivered a 100% redeployable solution. The installation included a 50kVa hybrid battery and solar 40kW of solar power, a 45kVa B-ESS and a 50kVa backup generator.
The project at Whitman Park successfully replaced a 100kVa generator running 24/7 to a cost-effective, energy efficient hybrid power solution with almost a 100% push through on renewable energy. This drastically lowered on-site noise pollution, diesel handling and overall operational costs.
