Powering Progress: Star Power's Tailored Support for Richmond upon Thames College's Engineering Facilities

Project Overview

Beard Construction, engaged to develop new and existing engineering facilities at Richmond upon Thames College (RuTC), required a dependable temporary power solution. Initially contracted to support building commissioning works, the project scope expanded to include operational power for the college’s engineering department due to delays from a statutory authority. This development reinforced Beard Construction’s confidence in Star Power, establishing the company as their first-choice provider.

Supporting Richmond upon Thames College

A statutory authority delay jeopardised the commissioning of two educational buildings, critical for the new term. This setback necessitated a responsive and reliable temporary power solution to bridge the gap and maintain progress.

Solution

Following a detailed site survey, the Star Power team provided a tailored power solution, including:

  • Primary Generator Installation: A high-capacity generator was installed to meet the engineering department’s initial power requirements.
  • Backup Power Supply: An additional generator was provided to ensure redundancy and safeguard against potential disruptions.
  • Comprehensive Support: Star Power’s proactive approach facilitated a seamless transition and dependable power supply for both the commissioning and operational stages.

 Benefits of the Solution

  • Operational Continuity: The engineering department’s facilities were powered on schedule, ensuring readiness for the new term.
  • Reliability: The inclusion of a backup generator minimised the risk of power interruptions.
  • Client Trust: Beard Construction recognised Star Power’s expertise and responsiveness, strengthening an ongoing partnership.

Client Feedback

Oli Kenworthy, Beard Construction: “Matt and his team acted professionally throughout the process of sizing, surveying, and installing the generator here at the RuTC. The quick, responsive nature, in light of a statutory authority letdown, was a real testament to Star Power’s positive and committed attitude. The team on-site is grateful for the service and responsiveness, which enabled the two educational buildings to begin commissioning for the new term.”

Outcome

Star Power’s responsive and reliable temporary power solutions ensured the successful commissioning and operation of RuTC’s engineering facilities. Beard Construction’s trust in Star Power’s capabilities underscores the effectiveness of this partnership and paves the way for future collaborations.
