Kier leads switch to hybrid battery generators

Kier is switching over to the use of battery storage units working alongside generators to help achieve its net zero carbon goals.
The decision to switch follows a  trial of 10 battery storage units on the contractor’s sites.
Kier has established a monthly saving per unit of seven tonnes of carbon, an overall reduction in generator run time of 59%, and a cost saving of over £2,000, after BSU hire costs are accounted for.Hirer Sunbelt Rentals will supply the battery storage units
