Battery Energy Storage Systems for Hire

A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) adds a layer of intelligence to how a site uses power, storing energy from the grid, solar or a generator and releasing it exactly when it's needed. Paired with a generator, a BESS can cut fuel use, running costs and noise, while keeping your site's power supply just as reliable. It is well suited to site offices, amenities and other mixed-load applications. Need more capacity than what we offer? Let us know your project's requirements and we'll help scope a larger solution.

FAQs About Battery Energy Storage Systems

A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) provides a flexible and efficient way to support temporary and long-term site power requirements. Designed to work alongside generators and grid power, a BESS helps balance energy demand, reduce generator runtime and improve overall power management across construction sites, workshops and major projects. With features such as real-time monitoring, rapid deployment and automatic power management, BESS technology can help keep critical site operations running smoothly while supporting more efficient use of on-site power.

What is a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and how does it work?

A BESS stores power from the grid, solar or a generator and delivers it when it's needed. Using intelligent controls, it optimises energy use and helps ensure a stable, reliable power supply.

Can a BESS work with solar or a generator?

Yes. A BESS can charge from the grid, solar or a generator, supply power independently during low-demand periods, and automatically restart the generator when demand increases or energy levels are low.

What size BESS do I need?

We currently offer the 60 kVA BESS. If your project needs more capacity, let our team know your site's requirements and we can discuss a larger solution tailored to you.

How much can a BESS reduce fuel use and noise on site?

Quite a lot, in the right setup. Sites that pair a generator with a BESS have seen fuel use cut by up to 80%, emissions reduced by up to 50% against diesel-only setups, and noise dropped by up to 90%. Actual figures depend on your site and how the system is configured.

Can I hire a BESS for a short-term or long-term project?

Yes. We offer flexible short- and long-term hire, whether you need a BESS for a single project milestone or ongoing site power over a longer deployment.

How does delivery work?

We deliver BESS units across Australia. Contact our team to confirm availability and delivery timeframes for your site.
