Smarter, Cleaner Power for Mining Operations

Cut fuel. Cut costs. Cut carbon at Every Site.  Ampd's advanced energy storage systems (ESS) work in tandem with your on-site assets, allowing you to right-size your generator fleet and eliminate the waste from constant idling. By using our technology to bridge the gap between supply and peak demand, you can achieve dramatic fuel savings and near-silent operation with more stable and reliable site power.

The challenge vs the solution

Why an Ampd is so powerful?

The Challenge

High-Torque Starts vs. Traditional Power

Diesel generators struggle in peaky environments because their mechanical systems aren’t designed to react quickly to sudden surges or drops in demand. The highly volatile power profiles in these settings cause inefficiencies, fuel waste, and excessive wear, as the engines are constantly ramping up and down to keep pace. This mismatch between steady-state machine design and erratic load patterns makes them both costly and unreliable.

The Solution

Intelligent Energy Storage

Pairing a generator with an Ampd Battery Energy Storage System (ESS) enables generators to operate within their peak efficiency window and/or only need to be on for a few hours each day. Pairing an ESS  and a diesel generator delivers a payback period of around 2 years and backed by a 5-year product warranty, the Ampd ESS offers not only technical resilience but also strong financial returns and peace of mind.

Ampd’s ESS portfolio of products are also solar ready. When integrated with solar, the generator operating hours, fuel burn, refuelling intervals and maintenance intervals can be reduced even further or eliminated altogether.

Operational Resilience

Reduce dependency on complex fuel supply chains in remote locations by maximizing the efficiency of every drop of diesel.

Decarbonization at Scale

Eliminate up to 90% of CO2 emissions from idling generators and remove toxic exhaust from the pit and underground environments.

Ruggedized Reliability

Engineered to withstand the harshest environments, Ampd systems are already powering heavy-duty equipment in the world’s most demanding mines.
