YorPower Teams Up With Weatherhaven Global Solutions
YorPower began 2023 with a project that not only made full use of its capabilities as a national and international provider of back-up power solutions, but also underlined its environmental credentials.
YorPower was recently asked to provide a quotation and plan to supply and deliver two 60kVA units by its client, Weatherhaven Global Solutions. Weatherhaven are experts at designing, planning and implementing shelter and camp solutions across the world. They provide military camps, mobile medical shelter systems, and commercial camps, varying from mining to construction setups.
As Group Sales Director, Jordan Kincaid said: “It’s always great to work with companies that offer a service that helps people in need.”
This particular project required YorPower to deliver two 60kva Perkins diesel generators to an island in the Indian Ocean, that will support the power of rapid deployment shelters that are manufactured and installed by Weatherhaven. These shelters can hold kitchens, dry goods, mobile hospitals and other relevant facilities. The generator sets were shipped in a container, alongside two battery chargers, six additional sockets and two road trailers for easy transportation once they arrive on the island.
The Journey To Becoming Net Zero
Emission regulations are becoming a reality for all businesses. For a leading supplier of back-up power solutions, supplying diesel generators and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units to the UK and overseas, the mandate to become net-zero means a culture change throughout our entire operations.
YorPower aims to be fully net-zero long before the government deadline of 2050. The company has recently teamed up with Neutral Carbon Zone, which helps organisations take an expert look at their sustainability agendas to see how they can slash their carbon footprint in ways they may not have expected.
Increasingly, customers and employees want to work with companies that demonstrate a commitment to becoming carbon neutral. YorPower is undertaking a full carbon audit, assessing its core emissions, calculating its operational emissions and also engaging its supply chain in reducing their emissions.
The message from the YorPower group of companies is “watch this space,” as it will soon be announcing a new future-proofed model that will be focused on meeting or surpassing the government’s environmental, social and governance objectives.
YorPower takes a partnership approach in all projects, becoming an extension of its customers’ teams. Therefore, if all other companies share YorPower’s approach of becoming more sustainable in all areas of operation, with the eventual goal of being carbon neutral, they will be naturally aligned with each other.
In a similar way, the team at Weatherhaven are keen on doing their bit to help the environment. All of their shelter designs are lightweight and compact, which helps reduce fuel consumption and transport time.
Mr Kincaid concluded by saying: “This is a great project for YorPower to take part in. Knowing that these generators will travel the world providing power to the volunteers supporting third world countries and war-torn areas is extremely rewarding.”
YorPower specialises in the supply, delivery and installation of diesel generators.
