Defence Case Study
All defense sites have critical power requirements and most will ensure that they are able to run independently from the grid by having their own power generation
As one of the three pillars of the energy trilemma and the area the UK scores lowest on the world Energy Trilemma index. At times last winter the UK had an excess capacity of just 6.6% which is considerably lower than the year before. The continual transition to more generation from renewable sources will only increase the risk of blackouts and brownouts in the years to come.
Ensuring your business has built in resilience and access to a resiliant power supply will be key to ensuring valuable production days are not lost. While Diesel generators can provide back up power, they can significantly increase your carbon footprint at a time when most businesses are aiming to achieve Net zero emissions.
A site-wide Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with ultra-fast switching to ensure that no electrical equipment on-site is disrupted by fluctuations, drops, or changes in power supply.
Patented Powerstar technology that can dynamically change the voltage on your site to ensure that it is constant, smooth, and exactly the right value to prevent damage to your electrical equipment and keep it working efficiently.
Transformers
With most transformers in the UK being more than 20 years old, ensuring you have new, efficient, UK manufactured transformers removes a major failure risk.
Uniquely, our resilience technologies can also be used to provide your site with additional applications and benefits. While most UPS power solutions provide just that, our bespoke solutions provide better control over your energy usage, reduce bills and carbon emissions, improve sustainability, make your power more resilient, and more.
The cheapest and greenest energy is the energy you don’t use.

Parkinson Spencer Refractories achieved protection from Power Disruptions, a 5% reduction in Energy Costs and extra revenue through GridBeyond with a BESS
Powerstar were engaged to replace a large hospital’s existing Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system with a more efficient, intelligent Battery Energy Storage (BESS) alternative.
Powerstar was commissioned to replace the site’s ageing transformer with modern, low-loss replacements, that incorporated voltage optimisation technology to provide more stable voltages across the site.
Electricity supply is vital to any project or organization. Whether that be a manufacturing plant, supermarket or large office, having a reliable supply of energy is key to ensuring that you’re able to keep things running smoothly.
The UK logistics sector has faced a period of unprecedented disruption, with the combined challenges of the COVID-19
