What Kier had to say?
Working with Prolectric has been a game-changer for the A417 ‘Missing Link’ project. From the outset, their team understood our environmental and operational challenges and provided innovative, sustainable solutions that exceeded our expectations. The transition from diesel to solar-powered lighting and hybrid generators was seamless, delivering significant cost savings and reducing our carbon footprint without compromising performance.
The ability to remotely monitor and manage our site lighting has improved efficiency, while the reduction in noise and emissions has created a far better working environment for our operatives. The fuel savings alone – over 75% in some cases – demonstrate the real-world impact of these technologies.
We are delighted that our partnership with Prolectric has already saved us over £250,000 within just a few months, with projected annual savings exceeding £638,000. As a business, we are committed to reducing – and ideally eliminating – diesel from our sites. By adopting Prolectric’s Solar Hybrid Generators and Solar Lighting solutions, we are on track to cut over 800,000 kg of CO₂e per year, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability and smarter, cleaner construction practices.
Prolectric’s expertise and hands-on support made this transition effortless. Their solutions have not only helped us meet our sustainability goals but have also set a new benchmark for how we power major infrastructure projects.
