Smarter Power for Construction

Cleaner, Quieter, and More Efficient Power on Every Project. The construction industry has been advancing it's power solutions ahead of alternative heavy industries. Over the years, our advanced energy storage systems (ESS) have been proven as modern, reliable and sustainable power solutions.

The challenge vs the solution

Why an Ampd is so powerful?

The Challenge

High-Torque Starts vs. Traditional Power

Construction sites have historically relied heavily on diesel generators to power cranes, tools, batching plants, and temporary facilities. But the way these sites use power is far from steady. Equipment cycles on and off, cranes draw surges during lifts, and site sheds run continuously at low load leaving generators idling inefficiently for much of the day.

Diesel generators are designed for constant, high-load operation, not the fluctuating demands of construction work. To handle short bursts of high current, they’re often oversized, burning more fuel than necessary, increasing maintenance costs, and creating unnecessary noise and emissions.

The Solution

Intelligent Energy Storage

An Ampd ESS acts as the buffer between equipment and supply. It delivers the high current needed during peak demand; for crane lifts, hoists, pump startups, or batching surges, allowing smaller generators or modest grid connections to run smoothly at their most efficient point.

By pairing an ESS and a diesel generator, they can deliver 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.

Financial Performance

Achieve a purchase payback in as little as one year by right-sizing your generator fleet and slashing fuel consumption and maintenance costs by up to 85%

Sustainability

Lower your site’s carbon emissions by up to 90% and create a healthier jobsite with zero noise pollution and zero direct NOX, PM and SO₂ emissions.

Proven

Ampd is the global benchmark for battery energy storage in the built environment, trusted by the world’s leading construction and real estate Tier-1 firms.

Construction

Example construction use cases

Construction projects face more peaks, surges, and volatility than many realize.

Tower Cranes & Hoists

Supply instant current for lifts and movements without voltage dips

Tools & Equipment
