Power of silence - Star Power invests in Hussh Pods batteries

Temporary and emergency power specialist Star Power has strengthened still further its battery fleet with by purchasing new Hussh Pod lithium ion units.

The company has invested in multiple Hussh Pod 45/90 units that can be combined with generators to deliver flexible and sustainable power when and where it is needed.

Flexible temporary power

Star Power’s Head of Power, Paul Ridley, said: “These Hussh Pod lithium batteries are lighter and faster-charging so can be placed in a wider range of locations and give consistently excellent performance.

“They can be paired with a 100kVA generator to create a very flexible temporary power solution that drives down costs and emissions, and delivers optimum performance in noise-critical environments.”

Star Power has already combined one of the Hussh Pods with a generator on a truck that has gone out on long-term hire to a contractor working for film production companies.

The 45/90 Hussh Pod industrial power bank stores up to 90kW of power that can be outputted at up to 45kWA. It weights 2,200kg and has rapid recharge capability.

Powering multiple advantages

The units can be remotely monitored at any time of the day or night to assess power usage and battery levels. They also automatically send out email alerts if problems with on site power usage are detected.

Hussh Pod battery units can be combined with a generator to create a number of important advantages:

  • As hybrid power system, working in tandem with a generate to boost power outputs as they are needed;
  • As an emergency back-up system in case the generator develops a faults;
  • To efficiently provide off-peak electricity when demand does not require the full load delivered by a generator;
  • As a source of silent power when noise reduction is essential – for example at night at sensitive locations or on film and TV sets;
  • Again, to provide emissions free power in sensitive locations.

Optimised sustainable energy

In this way, using a Hussh Pod used in conjunction with a generator can significantly reduce both electricity costs and carbon emissions, while enhancing a company’s reputation.

Paul Ridley said: “This technology allows Star Power to deliver the optimum sustainable energy solutions for clients, bearing in mind we can also supply generators with the latest Stage 5 engines, powered with reduced emissions HVO fuels.

“We’re expecting our new Hussh Pods to be in significant demand across many sectors, including construction, where they are ideal to power out of hours lighting and security systems, data centres, large events and media production.”
