Hybrid power plants, a one-stop flexible power solution
More flexibility, reliability and revenue – Aggreko’s hybrid solutions let you efficiently combine renewables with thermal generation and battery storage.
Generators running on diesel or gas have been providing reliable power for years. Especially in remote areas, they were often the only choice to ensure safe and stable electricity supply to communities and businesses.
With the rise of renewables this has changed. Once solar or wind plants are installed, generation costs for power are almost zero – as are emissions! But unlike thermal generation, wind and photovoltaic (PV) are variable power sources. Therefore, the growth of renewables may lead to increased grid instability and operational uncertainty, especially on isolated networks.
By combining solar and diesel with sophisticated battery storage you can strengthen your energy grid by buffering the impact of fluctuating power demand and supply. Aggreko’s hybrid package is available for rent, with no costly up-front investment, so you retain capital for your business operations.
