Challenge

Student Roost, a purpose-built student accommodation block with two attached commercial units is in a prominent city centre location. The client faced issues as the commercial units were not yet connected to the grid. As the project nears completion and the electrical equipment begins to be installed, the electrical contractor is unable to test the medical equipment for safe use. Student Roost were therefore facing a potential delay in opening the brand-new facility creatin a delay in revenue on all sides. The client required temporary power, as quiet as possible in a city centre location with little to no HGV access.

Solution

Wernick Power Solutions suggested a Stage V generator, along with a battery storage unit programmed for silent running hours, a key objective for Student Roost. Additionally, Wernick proposed electrical install to their distribution board and fuel management to eliminate any contractor downtime foe or delays.

The hybrid set up aligned with the noise requirement and served no issues regarding pollution or interference for students. Overall, the client saved £3,029 and avoided 13,952kg of carbon emissions. In addition, Student Roose preserved 4,276 litres of fuel, and achieved 946 hours silent running hours with a sum of 90% of the operation time being silent.
