It can be challenging to reduce carbon and fuel on temporary and remote construction sites due to lack of access to mains power.
Our Infrastructure team commissioned temporary site accommodation supplier Algeco to undertake a trial on a satellite set-up, with the aim of reducing fuel, carbon dioxide and cost.
The solution uses a combination of innovative smart technology and sustainable solutions including smart energy controls, smart power sockets, solar roof panels, hybrid generator, Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil fuel, climate control and recycled/reusable temporary foundations to use on the compound.
As a result of the collaboration, the team was able to completely avoid the use of diesel on this site for a period of 13 weeks.
