Specialized Equipment for Renewable Energy Industry Applications
Having the right equipment at the job site ensures each job gets completed quickly, professionally and efficiently. Large jobs, such as renewable energy projects, power generation equipment and renewable energy tools, can require large amounts of up-front capital if you purchase your equipment. There are multiple cases where renting equipment makes sense, and having the right tools is essential:
- Construction. Setting up wind farms and installing ground mounts and rooftop solar systems requires heavy equipment. Having the right tools ensures the exact placement, which can optimize the system’s efficiency. Herc Equipment offers top brands and continued support that focuses on safety and efficiency.
- Drilling and excavation. Geothermal energy projects depend on specialized tools, such as drilling rigs and excavation equipment, to get to the required depths to reach geothermal reservoirs.
- Maintenance. When problems arise and maintenance tasks are necessary, heavy equipment and reach trucks are required for workers to examine and repair the issue, which ensures these renewable energy facilities continue to operate at maximum efficiency.
- Cleaning. Solar panels require regular maintenance and cleaning to remove dust and debris. Rentals make it possible to reach roof-mounted systems, and specialized cleaning equipment helps ensure each panel reaches its lifespan.
Regardless of the project, Herc Rentals has the right renewable energy equipment to get the job done right.
Types of Renewable Energy Equipment
A variety of machines may be required for alternative energy projects. Whether you’re looking for equipment for large-scale construction, need to move employees from one job site to another or need portable office space, Herc Rentals has a selection of equipment that ensures a safe, efficient job site.
- Trucks and trailers. Truck and trailer rentals ensure equipment, materials and employees reach the job site on time. Water trucks allow you to carry substantial amounts of water to the job site. The open-bed design of flatbed trailers makes them essential for moving generators, turbine parts and transformers. Pickups and carts carry small solar panels and other materials, while crane and bucket trucks make it possible to reach heights. Cable reel and pole trailers are ideal for transporting items, such as wind turbines, and for laying cables and conduit.
- Portable generators. Portable generators are necessary at job sites where remote power is required to operate tools and equipment. They may be used to operate lighting systems and pumps or to provide power to portable trailers and office sites during the construction stage.
- Lighting solutions. Work at renewable job sites often require long hours, including early morning and late nights. Portable lighting solutions make it possible for workers to see what they are doing after hours and help increase worksite safety.
- Material handling gear. Material handling gear, such as conveyors, fork-lifts and telehandlers, make it possible to safely move heavy parts and equipment from one location to another. This equipment helps prevent injury and makes many tasks easier.
- Storage. Job sites require supervisors and employees to be outside or away from the main company office for days and weeks at a time. Having portable storage is important on the job for keeping equipment safe and secure during downtime.
- Surveillance equipment. Monitor and maintain site security at all times of the day with portable surveillance equipment.
