Eco Power

Silent power with reduced emissions. Hybrid battery bank and generator solution. This provides silent power for much of your event with the diesel generator taking over at times of high demand e.g. when the caterers use their ovens.

The battery also acts as a backup in the unlikely event of there being problems with the main generator and significantly reduces carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide emissions (typical monthly savings of 5.5T of carbon monoxide and 74kg of nitrous oxide).

Why use a hybrid generator?

A Hybrid power generator is a unit containing batteries and an inverter that can produce power at mains voltage. It would generally be connected to a diesel generator that is run for part of the day, with the hybrid supplying the load when the generator is not running.

The most efficient “load profile” for a hybrid power system leading to the largest cost-savings, is an asymmetric load; a fairly large load for a portion of the day e.g. caterers, and a smaller load for the remainder of the day e.g. marquee/tipi LED lighting. This load profile is typical of a wedding or private party.

Essentially the cost savings are made by virtue of the fact that diesel generators are only between 20-30% efficient at converting fuel into electricity (the rest goes to heat, noise, frictional and electrical losses). If you can double the load on generator, but only run it for half of the time, you have generated the same amount of electricity, but you have halved the amount of ‘wasted’ fuel.

The inverter in the hybrid unit is the brain of the system and will monitor loads and control the generator. The system can also be monitored and controlled remotely via GSM/3G in 99% of the UK.
