Supporting Housebuilders with Smarter, Low-Impact, High-Efficiency Temporary Power Solutions

Project Overview

A leading national housebuilder engaged Star Power to provide a dependable hybrid power solution for a new residential development. With growing pressures around sustainability, community impact, and operational efficiency, the client required a system that could deliver reduced fuel usage, lower emissions, and minimal noise during evening hours. Following a comprehensive site survey, Star Power designed and installed a tailored hybrid power package to meet these goals and support ongoing site operations.

 

Supporting Residential Development with Cleaner, Smarter Power

The site’s proximity to existing housing created an additional challenge: maintaining productivity without disrupting nearby residents. The client’s priorities included environmental performance, cost-effectiveness, and ensuring a quiet operating environment during out-of-hours periods. These requirements aligned perfectly with Star Power’s hybrid solution capabilities.

 

Solution

Following a detailed assessment, Star Power delivered a fully integrated power package, including:

  • Hybrid Generator Installation: A 100kVA generator combined with a 45/90 battery pack provided a stable and efficient power supply with reduced environmental impact.
  • Timer-Controlled Distribution Board: Implemented to further optimise energy use, particularly in high-demand areas such as the site drying room.
  • On-Site Optimisation: Star Power engineers configured the hybrid system to reduce generator run time during evenings and weekends, while maintaining essential services.

 

Operational and Environmental Benefits

The solution delivered measurable results across key performance areas:

  • Fuel Efficiency: Lower generator run times contributed to noticeable fuel savings.
  • Emission Reductions: The use of battery storage helped reduce overall emissions from the power supply.
  • Noise Control: By relying on battery power during quieter hours, the site maintained compliance with local noise expectations.
  • Performance Monitoring: Monthly reporting provided the client with transparent data on system usage and energy savings.

 

Client Feedback

“Star Power provided a knowledgeable and responsive service throughout. Their hybrid setup helped us meet both our environmental commitments and local community expectations, with minimal disruption to the build programme. The inclusion of timed controls and ongoing monitoring gave us a clear view of performance and efficiency gains on site.”

 

Outcome

Star Power’s hybrid power solution enabled uninterrupted progress on the residential development while helping the client meet environmental and community impact objectives. The success of this project further demonstrates the value Star Power brings to housebuilders across the UK seeking cleaner, more efficient temporary power alternatives.
