Unsure of the benefits associated with using Instagrid’s lithium-ion batteries as opposed to traditional diesel generators to power equipment on construction or industrial worksites? Here’s two real-world examples illustrating the advantages.
-
THE CHALLENGE
While cost effective to run, traditional diesel generators are prone to frequent breakdowns, ultimately leading to higher repair costs over time and project delays due to equipment downtimes. Moreover, diesel generators pose serious environmental concerns due to harmful emissions and excessive noise pollution.
-
SOLUTION
A switch to Instragrid's lithium-ion battery generators, to power refueling pumps providing reliable, quiet and emission-free power.
-
RESULTS
Benefits across the board. First, the switch to Instagrid’s lithium-ion battery completely eliminated downtime, breakdown or maintenance-related problems.Second, operational costs were significantly reduced, with major savings delivered on fuel and repair expenses, with no consumable or parts required, leaving only cleaning and charging costs.
Third, it was a more sustainable approach. The zero emissions and reduction in noise pollutants positively impacted the environment.
Last but not least, operational efficiency improved, and installation and operations were simplified for those on site.
-
THE CHALLENGE
Traditional petrol-powered generators are noisy, require continual refueling and maintenance, and produce harmful emissions.
-
SOLUTION
The switch to Instagrid’s lithium-ion battery generators to power heavy-duty tools provided multiple benefits: consistent, interruption-free power delivery; higher energy density and longer battery life efficacy; zero carbon emissions supporting sustainability initiatives, zero noise resulting in quieter operation; lightweight and easy-to-transport portable design; cost effective as there’s no ownership costs.
-
RESULTS
First and foremost, worker comfort was significantly improved due to reduced noise pollution and better working conditions.
Second, productivity increased as downtime, refuelling, and maintenance costs were eliminated.
Third, operating costs were lowered with reductions in fuel and maintenance expenses. Most importantly, this marked a move toward more sustainable operations.
