A major investment group significantly reduced the environmental impact of running their annual summer celebrations by opting for sustainable power solutions, with 78% of the power generated using greener Battery Storage Units, and burning just 54 litres of fuel across the entire 4-day event.

Story Contracting is delivering a bridge replacement project as part of the Ravenscraig development program of works for Network Rail in Scotland.

Temporary power solutions are a necessary requirement for many industries when a connection to the national grid isn’t available. With multiple filming locations sited in remote areas and many sites without access to mains electricity, Film & TV is one such industry, and is therefore heavily reliant on temporary power solutions such as generators.

The Berkeley Group is transforming an extensive site into one of the most biodiverse developments in the UK. The extensive site will eventually comprise of thousands of high specification homes, and a new commercial district with amenities for residents and the wider community.

As part of the countries ongoing flood alleviation plans, the Environment Agency have committed to and invested in over 1000 schemes across the UK, to be delivered throughout 2021-2022. These schemes will better protect homes and businesses from flooding.

Since the London Olympics, Sunbelt Rentals has provided temporary infrastructure solutions for Stadium Management. Our 360 Solutions team is now supporting Stadium Management’s three-year program to provide major events for the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO).

Sunbelt Rentals were approached by SSE to create a temporary contractors compound, to provide welfare facilities to subcontractors during a planned outage whilst annual maintenance work was carried out.

As part of our quest to help our customers reduce carbon emissions, we have worked hand-in-hand with Balfour Beatty and Invisible Systems to develop Eco-Lync - a state-of-the-art, cloud-based energy and power management system which can reduce site emissions by as much as 80%. For Balfour Beatty projects, this system was known as EcoNet.

Sunbelt Rentals Rail worked closely with Balfour Beatty to design an environmentally friendly solution that safely lit the compound with zero noise and lighting pollution.  

Balfour Beatty has a multi-million pound contract to build the onshore substation for Ørsted’s latest offshore wind farm, Hornsea Project Two, on the east coast of England. When it is operational in 2022, the wind farm will supply green electricity to over 1.3 million homes and will be the world’s largest offshore wind farm.

The new onshore substation facility will transform the power produced by Hornsea Project Two wind farm before connecting it to the National Grid. It is a major development in the future of the UK’s renewable industry and the project will make an important contribution towards the UK’s goal for renewable electricity generation.

During the construction phase, Balfour Beatty required a fuel and energy efficient means of providing power for temporary site accommodation and other equipment on the onshore substation site until 2021.
