RMX goes hybrid Ready-mix

Opportunity Results QATAR
Enhancing energy • 30–40% diesel fuel
efficiency of a diesel- savings
powered RMX facility • Fewer diesel generators
by addressing power required on site
demand fluctuations. (downsizing)
• Generator runtime
Solution reduced by 15% in
Installing an energy storage summer, over 50% in
system solution (battery winter
storage capacity: 307 kWh) • System stability
that is synchronized with improves efficiency and Jon Brooks
the diesel generator and reliability General Manager
provides the power needs • CO₂ emissions
in the most efficient way. reduction: 180 tons/year
Complement the solution • ROI: 3 years
