New Bobcat Fleet for Renewable Energy and Drainage Projects

PSR Turnkey Solutions Ltd, based in Rotherham in South Yorkshire in the UK, has purchased new Bobcat mini-excavators and a new Bobcat compact track loader for use on the company’s renewable energy and drainage projects across the UK. The new Bobcat equipment has been supplied by AMS Bobcat Limited, based in Scunthorpe, the Authorised Bobcat Dealer for Lincolnshire and South and East Yorkshire. The new machines comprise a Bobcat E19 1.9 tonne and two E27z 2.7 tonne mini-excavators and a T450 compact track loader. An Expert in Renewables and Drainage Solutions PSR Turnkey Solutions is a leading civil engineering and construction company committed to building a better future for local communities in the UK, with a focus on building infrastructure for the rapidly expanding renewable energy industry as well as for drainage projects. Paul Strutt, Managing Director of PSR Turnkey Solutions, commented; “We specialise in building the infrastructure for the growing renewables market, from preparing the foundations for concrete plinths for rechargers for electric vehicles to building battery energy storage systems (BESS) to support the National Grid.” The new Bobcat equipment has already been employed in contracts as far apart as Scotland and west London. In fact, one of the two new E27z mini-excavators is currently working on the installation of an environmentally friendly air source heating system to replace gas boilers at a leisure centre in Ruislip to the west of London. Paul Strutt added: “We moved from another brand when we bought the Bobcat machines. We were impressed by the design and the performance of the Bobcat excavators and the new loader. The presentation by AMS Bobcat and the support they will provide was also crucial in the purchase decision and we look forward to working closely with AMS and Bobcat in the future.” Attachment Capability of T450 Adds Versatility One of the most attractive features of the new Bobcat M-Series T450 compact track loader for PSR Turnkey Systems is its attachment capability. There is a wide choice of different types of Bobcat attachment that can be combined quickly and safely with the T450, via the quick-change Bob-Tach attachment mounting system, delivering versatility and time-saving efficiency across a huge range of different applications. Paul Strutt continued: “The T450 is a very handy addition to our fleet. One of the first attachments we have bought is a sweeper, to provide clean up on site. I also see the T450 as a replacement for dumpers as it does not have to be filled up by other machines on site as it can do all that work itself.” High Performance Mini-Excavators The E19 mini-excavator delivers impressive performance in confined spaces with the need for only minimal repositioning. The operator can hydraulically retract the undercarriage to a width of only 98 cm in order to travel through gates or between walls and houses, then expand it to 136 cm for a wider footprint and greater performance. The E27z is part of Bobcat’s R-Series mini-excavators from 2-4 tonne, comprising four more models – the E26, E27, E34 and E35z. All five machines offer a best-in-class mix of high digging forces, superb stability and smooth controllability of working functions complemented by low weights for easy transportation. The new E27z with its cab and bucket has an operating weight of 2700 kg, a maximum digging depth of 2847 mm and maximum reach at ground level of 4814 mm. Infrastructure for Utilising Renewable Energy Battery storage, or battery energy storage systems (BESS), are devices that enable energy from renewables, like solar and wind, to be stored and then released when the power is needed most. Battery storage technologies are therefore deemed to be essential in speeding up the replacement of fossil fuels with renewable energy, playing an increasingly pivotal role between green energy supplies and responding to electricity demands. Paul Strutt added: “Lithium-ion batteries, which are used in mobile phones and electric cars, are currently the dominant storage technology for large scale plants to help electricity grids ensure a reliable supply of renewable energy. We’ve begun deploying this technology with heavier equipment, working with a company that makes battery storage systems for industrial, commercial and residential buildings.” AMS - Over 30 Years as a Bobcat Dealer - More Than 4000 Machines Sold Established in 1992, Scunthorpe-based AMS Bobcat is one of the longest standing Bobcat dealers in Europe and has been in partnership with Bobcat in the UK for over 30 years.
