LIFOS is celebrating after the firm’s Lifos Fort solar PV battery storage system won the Plantworx Environment Initiative Award with a product designed to help the construction industry transition to a low-carbon future.
The Fort aims to significantly reduce the cost, noise and emissions of using a diesel generator on site. It is described as the ‘most advanced’ all-in-one solar battery storage system. Three models are available: 12kWh, 23kWh and 35kWh with power output options from 11kVA to 70kVA.
Packed with 18 solar panels that fit inside when transporting, the Fort delivers green power complete with a kick stand or optional container roof mounting kit. It is said to be ‘ideal’ for use on any construction site, even in remote locations or fixed onto the roof of a welfare unit.
Manufactured in Telford, the Fort will supply information on diesel usage, CO2 savings and solar power generation for easier ESG reporting. The product comes with a five-year warranty and battery replacement scheme.
MD Adrian Williams said, “The Environmental Initiative Award is a recognition of the serious carbon reduction benefits of the Lifos product and the unique design of the all-in-one solar battery package. Winning the award is a tremendous boost to the engineers, designers and everyone involved in the development of the product.”
