Hybrid Solar Power for Construction Projects

An alternative to diesel generators for construction projects

On the construction project in Aranjuez, the team needed to ensure an uninterrupted power supply in an environment with limited access to the grid, whilst reducing the operating costs associated with the intensive use of diesel generators.

The challenge: uninterrupted power supply and cost control

The project requires a constant supply of power for machinery, auxiliary systems and temporary installations.

The exclusive use of diesel generators meant:

High fuel consumption
Increase in operating costs
Refuelling logistics unit
Risk of disruption

The solution:
a hybrid system as an alternative to diesel

Nomad Solar Energy installed the Nomad Energy Box 20 in a hybrid configuration, combining solar generation, storage and conventional backup.

This made it possible to:

Significantly reduce diesel consumption
Ensuring energy security at all times
Reduce the frequency of refuelling
Improve the project’s operational efficiency
Adapt the system to the progress of the work

Results

Reducing energy costs on site
Greater autonomy and reduced logistical dependence
Uninterrupted business continuity
Lower environmental impact

Mobile solar power vs. diesel generator on site

Diesel generator Nomad Hybrid Solar
Energy instability Continued energy stability
Fuel logistics unit Structural reduction in fuel consumption
Variable and volatile costs Optimised energy costs
High emissions Clean, silent energy
Regular maintenance Greater operational resilience

Hybrid solar power is establishing itself as an efficient alternative
to diesel generators in the construction sector.

Mobile power for off-grid construction

This case study demonstrates that it is possible to improve energy efficiency, reduce costs and optimise site operations through mobile and sustainable solutions.
