How to win: Battery-powered Temporary Power Solutions

About this contract

Scottish Water is currently developing its future approach to temporary power solutions. As part of this work, we are seeking to better understand the market for battery-powered temporary power solutions, including supplier capabilities and the availability of both hire and purchase models. Previous market engagement has already established that a range of battery, hybrid and solar-assisted technologies exist within the market. Scottish Water is now seeking practical insight from suppliers with experience deploying battery-powered, hybrid and solar-assisted temporary power solutions across construction, utilities, and infrastructure projects. This work supports Scottish Water's ambitions around Beyond Net Zero, Service Excellence and Great Value & Financial Sustainability, and looks to better understand the role battery-powered temporary power solutions may play in supporting these ambitions. This engagement is intended to inform Scottish Water's understanding of the market and any future approach to temporary power solutions.
