Moving toward an energy transition with net-zero emissions, hybrid power systems offer a continuous energy source while cutting carbon emissions and fuel consumption. They provide stable, affordable and grid-like power to replace unreliable sources of energy or where power is unavailable.

Hybrid Power Systems

Hybrid power systems act as an off-grid power origin by converting renewable sources with other types of energy, such as fuel, to generate electricity. The combination of energy sources works together cohesively to drive power through a battery-charged system resulting in a strong, reliable and continuous source of power.

When reliable power solutions are not available, hybrid power systems provide a versatile alternative to diesel generators. This means a strong generation of electricity with lower maintenance costs by replacing the primary source of power with renewable energy.

With the transition of using renewable energy across construction and mining industries, hybrid power systems improve Australia’s environmental footprint with an innovative energy solution.

How Hybrid Power Systems Work

Hybrid power systems work via a battery system that absorbs renewable energy such as water, solar and wind to generate power and charge the battery. This is then paired with a backup generator to drive power when the battery levels are too low and an inverter to act as an interface between different inputs.

Solar panels, for example, will generate power when the sun is out and store any excess energy to charge the system’s batteries, acting as the source of power throughout the night. When the battery levels are low, the diesel generator will become the primary source to generate electricity.

As a result, the backup diesel generator is only required to be used at certain times of the day when the power demand levels are high. This not only reduces fuel consumption but also supplies a continuous supply of immediate electricity.

The Benefits of Hybrid Power Systems

With significantly lower engine run times, hybrid power systems supply the majority of electricity via the battery system, only running the diesel generator when necessary. This means that hybrid power systems offer the following:

• Significant savings on fuel and maintenance costs
• Minimal noise output
• Easy deployment, installation and storage
• Reduce overall carbon emissions
• Improve air quality and safety of the site
• Lowers vulnerability to harsh weather conditions
• Prevents generator glazing

The transition into renewable energy sources reduces the reliance on fuel to promote a cleaner alternative to generate power. Less greenhouse gas emissions, lower air and noise pollution and less fuel consumption mean cleaner power using an inexhaustible source of energy.

Hybrid Power System Applications

Hybrid power systems use renewable energy to provide reliable grid-like power with the capability to run 24/7 for large scale applications without disruption. In doing so, hybrid power systems offer a cleaner power solution to a range of applications within the following industries:

• Mining application
• Construction sites
• Telecom utilities
