• Simply running welfare power overnight by integrating hybrid power with a diesel generator can reduce fuel usage by as much as 50 percent or more , with the added benefit that CO2 output can be reduced by just as much .
and optimised for each site , to achieve maximum energy efficiency . As a result , inefficiencies and needless excessive fuel costs can be eradicated .
The future of hybrid power Although contractors are clearly going some way in implementing carbon reduction plans to help meet targets through careful selection of building products , operational site activities are a significant area in which operational and carbon savings still need to be made . For this , wider adoption of hybrid power solutions is key .
