Sustainable safety and renewable energies in remote construction sites
The torrent and avalanche control organisation (WLV) is committed to long-term protection against natural hazards. In order to maintain this protection, the Allerheiligen avalanche barrier, which is more than 30 years old, is being comprehensively optimised. The construction project, which is due to be completed by summer 2024, is estimated to cost around 3.2 million euros in total.
However, in remote regions, as in this case, construction projects pose a particular challenge: A reliable and sustainable power supply is often difficult to realise. This is where the innovative energy storage solution from MobilHybrid comes into play.
Challenges with the energy supply on remote construction sites
Remote construction sites such as those in the Sellrain Valley face the challenge of securing large amounts of energy for the operation of equipment such as cranes, drills and containers. Fossil fuels are often the only source of energy available here. But these have a high ecological footprint.
In order to achieve a climate-neutral construction site, innovative solutions are needed that guarantee both maximum energy efficiency and environmental protection.
The solution: MH-24 and mobile PV modules
The MobilHybrid MH-24, combined with four flexible folding PV modules, offers a reliable, emission-free power supply, even under extreme conditions. The construction crane with 20 kW connected load and other energy-intensive devices can be operated without any problems.
The full power of the PV modules and the storage system is optimally utilised even when energy demand is high.
Positive impact on the environment and energy costs
The use of the MH-24 and the mobile PV modules significantly reduces the environmental impact. Fossil fuels such as diesel generators are not required on sunny days, which minimises CO2 emissions and reduces overall energy costs. At the same time, the self-generated, renewable energy contributes to the safety and sustainability of the region.
Conclusion: The future of sustainable construction sites
The integration of environmentally friendly solutions such as the MobilHybrid MH-24 on construction sites shows that sustainability and productivity can go hand in hand. Saving resources and reducing emissions make a significant contribution to making construction projects more climate-friendly without compromising on performance.
This project serves as a clear sign that the combination of innovative energy storage and renewable energy generation makes a sustainable future possible - both for the construction industry and for the environment.
