Plant hire company Think Hire is collaborating with EV3 Power to offer construction sites the ability to recharge battery-powered machinery from renewable energy sources rather than diesel generators.
The collaboration between Think Hire and EV3 will provide relocatable, solar-powered energy sources that can be used to charge electric equipment at any off-grid site. Back-up diesel generators are fueled by hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO).
