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.

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