Net-zero: The transition to electrification was a no-brainer

Net-zero:
The transition to electrification was a no-brainer.
“It was a no-brainer really”, says Electricity North West Ltd (ENWL) Operations Manager Cieta Davies, who approved the installation of the Lithium Power Supply (LPS) from Clayton Power into their commercial vehicle fleet. The LPS brings benefits not only for the company and the operator, but also for the community.
Clean, green, and silent technology with an LPS
The LPS power solution made it possible to replace the old petrol-powered hand tools with new battery-powered equivalents. Petrol-powered hand tools create a lot of noise, and the constant fumes make for an unpleasant working environment for the operator. Removing the fumes and noise has gone down well with the communities in which ENWL operate.

"The charging system that we have in the van is fantastic. I’ve never had a moment where I’ve run out of charge."

"It was a no-brainer really."
Power in the vehicle makes electrification easy.
When ENWL first transitioned to battery-powered tools, they relied on running the vehicle’s engine to recharge their batteries. When they found out about the LPS, they quickly had the fleet retrofitted with a system that lets them recharge all their batteries without idling the engine. Roadside working with zero emissions.
“We have no problems with charging the batteries. They are charged without the vehicle running while we are at work”, says Peter Raven, Grounds Maintenance Delivery Manager.
Typical savings:
For a Distribution Network Operator, the transition to net-zero is a constant focus. In Cieta’s department, one contribution comes from switching from petrol to battery-powered tools.

according to the operator.
Mark Hayhurst, Grounds Operative at ENWL, says, “The charging system that we have in the van is fantastic. I’ve never had a moment where I’ve run out of charge”. Moving to battery-powered tools brings a multitude of benefits for the operator. The equipment is lighter, quieter and doesn’t emit any nasty fumes. All of this makes for a happier and healthier working environment for Mark and his colleagues.

Rapidly recharged for every stop and every job.
Flexible recharging from the vehicle’s alternator, solar panels or the grid ensures maximum efficiency.
Even when the vehicle is turned off, the LPS will still recharge and supply your tools with power. You can use both 12V and 230V at the same time, and the LPS recharges rapidly from the vehicle while driving, from solar panels on the roof or from the grid. The display menu shows how much the solar panels have contributed to recharging the LPS.
