BESS Tower Crane Operations in Singapore: How Senmarck’s Hybrid BESS Slashes Diesel Costs by 70%

In a groundbreaking move for Singapore’s high-rise construction sector, Senmarck partnered with a leading power rental company to deploy its Hybrid Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) for tower crane operations. The results? A dramatic 70% reduction in diesel consumption, transforming the way construction sites manage power—while boosting efficiency, sustainability, and profitability.

The Challenge: High Fuel Costs & Emissions in Urban Construction

High-rise projects in Singapore rely heavily on diesel generators to power tower cranes—often running them 12-16 hours daily. This leads to:

• Soaring fuel expenses

• High CO₂ emissions in dense urban areas

• Noise pollution and generator wear

The Senmarck Solution: Hybrid BESS for Smarter Power

By integrating Senmarck’s Hybrid Diesel-BESS System, the power rental company now delivers cleaner, more efficient energy to construction sites. Key benefits include:

1. 70% Lower Diesel Consumption – Reducing generator runtime to just 3-4 hours/day, saving thousands in fuel costs annually.

2. Eco-Friendly Compliance – Cutting CO₂ emissions helps contractors meet Singapore’s strict sustainability regulations.

3. Reduced Maintenance & Longer Generator Life – Optimized load management minimizes wear and extends equipment lifespan.

4. Quieter, Cleaner Construction Sites – Battery storage operates silently, reducing noise pollution in urban zones.

5. Seamless Peak Load Handling – Absorbs power surges, eliminating the need for oversized, inefficient generators.

6. Uninterrupted Operations –  Ensures continuous crane uptime, even during refueling or maintenance.

7. Fast ROI (9 Months!!!) –  Fuel and maintenance savings quickly cover system costs.

8. Scalable for Multiple Cranes & Equipment – The system can expand to support other high-demand machinery.

Proven Success in Singapore’s Construction Sector

Senmarck’s Hybrid BESS has empowered the power rental company to offer greener, cost-effective energy solutions to high-rise developers—turning construction sites into high-efficiency, low-emission zones.
