Hybrid Battery

Hybrid power systems save money, reduce maintenance and are silent, all while gaining greater efficiency and cleaner air.

GREEN POWER SOLUTIONS

Hybrid power batteries utilise a combination of solar power, diesel or biodiesel with an efficient energy storage system delivering environmentally friendly power. Our solutions range in power output from 1kVA through to 45kVA with capacity from 1kWh through to 90kWh.

Uninterrupted power

Uninterrupted power is extremely important, particularly during events or on mining and construction sites. These sites often consume large amounts of power for extended durations, demanding a large quantity of fuel. Traditional generators lose efficiency when working on low load. They consume 5 times more fuel to supply one-kilowatt per hour of energy at lower load levels. Since continuous energy consumption is rare, these generators often end up running on low load, causing higher fuel consumption and lower efficiency.

Our hybrid batteries create a backup for these sites whilst improving efficiency. Whenever the energy required is low, the battery takes over, turning off the generator. When the battery runs low on power or when there is a necessity for increased power outputs, the generator automatically turns on. This way the generator does not have to run on low load, saving fuel in the process.

Incorrectly sized diesel generators are overrated for the job and spend much of their time running but doing very little work. This results in poor fuel economy, under loading and unnecessarily high levels of pollution, carbon emissions and noise pollution.

100% Renewable Biodiesel

The introduction of hybrid technology means that, when there is a low demand for power, the generator can be turned off so that just the battery supplies the power. When the battery runs low or demand for power increases then the generator is automatically started. This way, the generator only runs when absolutely necessary, and works efficiently when it does. Even accounting for energy conversion losses, the result is less fuel consumed for the same amount of energy generated.

What is more, the battery can assist the generator during short bursts of high-power demand, so a smaller generator can be used.

Adding sustainably sourced and 100% renewable biodiesel into the equation further improves environmental outcomes, working towards net zero emissions.

The result is a cleaner and more cost-effective way of generating power with dramatically lower carbon and other hazardous emissions, a lower carbon footprint and no noise. Great for the environment, great for business, and great for worker health.
