SOBOS Energy Case Studies

Proven Savings: Day and Night

Our case studies document 87-99% reductions in generator run time - including night shift operations that prove solar hybrid systems deliver 24/7

YHI-1 Containerised Power System

Performance metrics and cost savings from our flagship containerised solar generator deployed at a Queensland construction site

Case Study: YHI-1 Containerised System Deployment

This case study details the performance and savings achieved by deploying the YHI-1 containerised solar generator system at a Queensland construction site.

38% less cost

Same amount of power, but much lower operating costs than renting a conventional diesel generator. This translates to significant savings over the project duration.

98% less generator run hours

4582 less hours of generator operation, thanks to the integrated solar array, charger, battery and inverter systems. This dramatically reduces maintenance requirements and extends generator life.

98% less fuel

Only used during inclement weather, lower generator run time yields lower fuel / refueling costs. This significantly reduces operational expenses and maintenance requirements.

30.21 tons CO2 reduction

A direct benefit of lower engine run times and fuel consumption. This significant carbon footprint reduction helps meet sustainability goals and environmental requirements.

Noise abatement

A reduced noise footprint with only less than 40dB (quiet office or refrigerator). This makes it ideal for noise-sensitive environments and improves working conditions.

100% uptime

Remotely monitored by SOBOS with client cloud app login, ensuring reliability is achieved. Continuous monitoring prevents downtime and enables proactive maintenance.

WALA Skid-Based Power System - Shadforth

Proven reliability and significant savings from our transportable skid system deployed at a Queensland construction site.

Case Study: Shadforth Construction Site, Queensland

Partnering with Shadforth, the WALA skid-based system provides reliable, 24/7 off-grid power for their remote Queensland construction site, addressing the typical challenges associated with traditional diesel generators.

46% less cost

Same amount of power, but much lower operating costs than a conventional diesel generator. This translates to significant savings over the project duration.

99% less generator run hours

8863 less hours of generator operation, thanks to integrated solar array, charger, battery and inverter systems. This reduces maintenance requirements and extends generator life.

99% less fuel

Generator ran primarily for scheduled maintenance checks, significantly cutting fuel use and required oil changes. This minimized refueling logistics and simplified overall site operations.

58.5t less CO2 emissions

Reduced fuel use also cuts NOx, CO, PM & hydrocarbons. This results in cleaner air quality on site and a significantly smaller environmental footprint.

Noise abatement

A reduced noise footprint with only <40dB (quiet office or refrigerator). This makes it ideal for noise-sensitive environments and improves working conditions.

100% uptime

Remotely monitored by SOBOS and with client cloud app login, ensuring reliability is achieved. Continuous monitoring prevents downtime and enables proactive maintenance.

WALA Night Operations - SGQ

Proving solar hybrids work around the clock: 87% savings on a night shift road construction site where battery storage carried the load after dark.

Case Study: SGQ Night Operations, Eumundi Noosa Road, Queensland

Deployed to an SGQ road construction site operating on night shift, the WALA MRPS relied predominantly on battery storage to power through the night - and still achieved an 87% reduction in generator hours compared to conventional diesel setups running during daylight hours.

Night Shift Operations

This deployment operated on night shift, relying predominantly on battery storage to power through the night. It demonstrates that solar hybrid systems deliver significant savings even when the primary load occurs outside daylight hours - proving 24/7 capability.

87% fewer generator run hours

7,579 hours saved - even on night shift where battery storage carried the load after dark. The system recharged via solar during the day and delivered power from the battery through the night.

87% less fuel consumed

$39,788 in fuel costs saved over 362 days of deployment. The hybrid system dramatically reduced diesel dependency even during overnight operations.

50.0t less CO2 emissions

Also cuts NOx, CO, PM & hydrocarbons - cleaner air and a smaller environmental footprint on a road construction site near residential areas.

Night shift capable

Silent <40dB battery operation ideal for noise-restricted sites and residential areas. Critical for night works where noise regulations are strictest.

100% uptime

24/7 power via remote-monitored SOBOS platform with app-based system access. Continuous monitoring ensured reliable overnight operations.

3 site offices powered

Each with 2 air conditioners, fridge, lights, microwave, kettle & toaster. Full site amenities powered through the night on battery alone.
