Total Power Requirement: 1120 kVA
Alternative Solution: 4 x Diesel Generators (500 kVA, 300kVA, 160 kVA, 160 kVA)
McGoff Construction faced a significant power challenge on their Manchester site. Their original set up involved four diesel generators to operate critical lifting equipment, a setup with highs costs and heavy environmental implications.
WOLFF Onsite were brought in and advised that a low voltage temporary building supply would soon become available. With time of the essence, the project needed to be hook-ready and fully operational as quickly as possible to meet programme milestones.
WOLFF Onsite provided the Enertainer — a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) — as a clean, scalable alternative to diesel power. Drawing only 30A from the 90A supply, the Enertainer powered the full lifting setup seamlessly.
Key advantages included:
Over the 56-week period it’s been on hire, the Enertainer delivered outstanding environmental and operational benefits:
“Without asking WOLFF Onsite for help, we wouldn't have been in a position where we were able to have a positive impact on the environment and a positive impact on the program”
