Henry Boot<\/a> has begun trialling hybrid power systems to provide sustainable and efficient power to sites with significantly decreased emission levels<\/h2>\n

The hybrid power systems are being trialled on its Kangaroo Works project in Sheffield<\/a> and Butterfield project in Luton.<\/p>\n

The lithium iron phosphate battery systems are coupled with a traditional backup auto start generator to ensure power delivery is uninterrupted but bring emission, noise pollution and cost benefits compared to the use of a 100% diesel generator.<\/p>\n

The solution we are trialling is a \u201830\/45\u2019 hybrid power system; utilising 30kva 3-phase generators with 45kw of usable battery power. It can also be reconfigured to a single-phase unit to provide a more powerful output.<\/p>\n

This solution also comes equipped with a data collection platform to allow us to view past and real time performance of the generator for monitoring purposes.<\/p>\n

On 28 June, Henry Boot launched its Net Zero Carbon (NZC) Framework<\/a>, which sets a target for the business to achieve NZC for all direct emissions by 2030. As part of this carbon reduction, the Group is targeting 100% of generators to be replaced by sustainable alternatives.<\/p>\n

The framework is one of the key initiatives of 135 Henry Boot \u2013 the first phase of its new Responsible Business Strategy.<\/p>\n

Time to reduce emissions significantly<\/h3>\n

Tony Shaw, managing director, said: \u201cWith the built environment contributing around 40% of the UK\u2019s GHG emissions, switching to solutions like hybrid power generators could help us reduce our emissions significantly.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are committed to working with our customers, supply chain and colleagues to collaboratively decarbonise.\u201d<\/p>\n
