Background
Overcoming Logistical Barriers
At 150 Borough High Street, ensuring uninterrupted power for life safety systems and critical building operations required a robust standby generator solution. However, the congested urban environment presented significant logistical challenges, necessitating a highly coordinated and efficient approach.
Project Overview
Navigating Complex Urban Constraints
The installation site was positioned behind a row of retail units on one of London’s busiest high streets. With no direct access for conventional delivery methods and roadclosure permits unavailable at short notice, traditional offloading was impractical. Additionally, the narrow passageway leading to the final installation location required an exceptional degree of precision handling.
Outcome
Reliable Standby Power with Full Regulatory Compliance
The installation was completed on schedule, meeting all UK regulatory requirements and exceeding client expectations. The site is now equipped with a fully integrated standby power system, safeguarding continuity in the event of mains disruption.
