Three of our Jaso J300 tower cranes, working at the Isle of Grain gas terminal in Kent. The tallest crane is freestanding 81m on 2m tower.
We are delighted to announce the addition of several PUNCH Flybrid machines into the Falcon Power Generation fleet.
The PUNCH Flybrid system uses flywheel technology to ‘boost’ the power of the diesel generator to cover the peaks required for tower crane operation. In applications with dynamic duty cycles, generator sets are sized for the dynamic load response. For example, the start-up current of machinery such as tower cranes, far exceed the standard running current. Without a PUNCH Flybrid system, a larger generator would be required to cover the start-up current. Whilst this is required initially, the generator would then be used at a much lower capacity during normal operation, which can be costly for the client in both monetary and emissions terms.
Using a smaller generator alongside a PUNCH Flybrid system, reduces the generator size required on site, reduces the fuel in which the generator consumes, and more than halves the CO2 emissions produced. Given the removal of rebated fuel (red diesel) in April 2022 and the increased fuel costs experienced over the past few months, the notion of supplying a PUNCH Flybrid systems is at worst, cost neutral, while saving many tonnes of harmful emissions. However, depending on the power demand of the application, it can save the client a significant amount of money as well as CO2 emissions (estimated between 50%/60%).
