Solar Pod Generator

Furthering our commitment to green energy solutions, PAL Hire is pleased to offer the Solar Pod. Combining solar PV, battery storage, a backup generator, and a 400 litre fuel tank in a safe and secure self-contained unit, the Solar Pod generator is the latest development designed to reduce emissions produced by construction sites.

You can hire the pod to reduce noise and carbon emissions on-site, as well as significantly reducing fuel costs.

Generally utilised on medium sized construction sites, it is predominantly used to power a site compound – up to 5 cabins can be powered from a single pod. It’s ideal for remote sites with no access to mains power and the perfect replacement for a 30-45 kVA generator.

Things to consider

Things to Consider

Your site team is responsible for connecting the generators and ensuring they are disconnected before collection.

The site is powered by either solar power, battery power, a generator, or a combination of these depending on the load demand.

The Solar Pod will either power the site directly, or will assist by charging the battery storage.
