Introduction
Greenpower Plant Hire Ltd specialises in providing sustainable energy solutions, supporting industries in their transition to cleaner, more efficient power sources. With a commitment to reducing environmental impact, they sought an eco-friendly welfare solution to enhance on-site facilities while aligning with their sustainability goals.

The Requirement
Ensuring that on-site teams had access to high-quality, compliant welfare facilities was a key priority for Greenpower Plant Hire Ltd. Traditional diesel-powered welfare units came with high operational costs and significant carbon emissions. The company needed a modern, sustainable alternative that provided essential amenities while supporting their environmentally responsible approach.
The Solution
To meet these requirements, Greenpower Plant Hire Ltd partnered with ecowelfare to install a 16ft fully solar-powered welfare unit. This unit featured a canteen for staff breaks and meal preparation, a drying room to enhance workforce comfort and one toilet to maintain hygiene standards. By removing the need for diesel generators, the welfare unit offered a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution while providing a comfortable space for employees on-site.
The Conclusion
- Zero fuel costs – Fully solar-powered, eliminating reliance on diesel.
- Over 94 litres of fuel saved – Reducing operational expenses and environmental impact.
- More than 299kg of CO2 emissions avoided – Supporting Greenpower Plant Ltd’s sustainability objectives.
- Improved workforce welfare – Providing a well-equipped, comfortable space for on-site staff.
