Hybrid site power

Power for sites the grid can't reach

Hybrid and diesel generators, lighting towers and fuel storage, for hire or to buy. We're building a hybrid fleet for Australian mining, construction, renewables and events.

Why hybrid

Less diesel. Less noise. Same reliable power.

A hybrid set pairs solar panels and a battery with a diesel generator. The battery carries the load most of the time, and the engine only starts when it's needed.

Lower fuel bills

Hybrid gear burns less fuel than diesel-only, so running costs come down.

Quieter sites

Less engine running means less noise for crews, neighbours and events.

Fewer emissions

Helps clients working to emissions targets and sustainability reporting.

86%

In one published case study, a 45 kVA hybrid unit powering a substation construction site ran on solar and battery 86% of the time over 120 days. Its generator ran only 14% of the time.4 Results vary by site and load.

Running cost

Diesel-only vs hybrid, at a recent diesel price

One week of 24/7 site power at the Gold Coast city average diesel price on 25 Oct 2026, used as a reference: 278.2¢/L, or 252.9¢/L ex GST.5

Weekly fuel use and cost, ex GST, 30 kVA class units (estimates; results vary by site, season and load)
Average site loadDiesel-onlyHybrid + solarFuel saving
Light, 6 kW
site office, crib room, lighting
$1,232487 L$333132 L$89973% less fuel
Medium, 12 kW$1,742689 L$1,126445 L$61635% less fuel

After the 53.7¢/L fuel tax credit that mining and construction businesses can claim, the weekly saving is still $708 at light load and $485 at medium load.6

Light loads are also hard on diesel-only sets. Published engine-maker guidance says running below about 30% of rated power can cause wet stacking (unburned fuel and carbon build-up).7 At light load, hybrid + solar cuts about 4 t of CO₂-e a month.8

Estimates, not a guarantee. Assumes 24/7 running and counts fuel only (no hire, delivery or servicing). Diesel-only uses published fuel-use figures for a typical 30 kVA diesel generator set at 25% and 50% load.9 For the hybrid, we assume the generator runs 14% of the time at light load (a published third-party result4), at an efficient 75% load, with the same daily solar output assumed at medium load. Without solar, a hybrid saves about 28% at light load and little at medium load. Results vary by site, season and load. Ask us for a total-cost comparison for your site.
