Power Your Remote Operations with Fuelfix Hybrid Power Solutions
Fuelfix’s HESU15 hybrid power system is engineered for remote and off-grid environments where reliability, efficiency, and sustainability are critical. By combining lithium battery storage with diesel generation and optionally integrating solar, this system delivers dependable energy while dramatically reducing fuel consumption.
A recent deployment with Wormall Civil at a construction site in Brabham, WA showcased the system’s impact. Tasked with powering a crib hut and diesel storage tank, the HESU15 paired with a 1.8kW solar skid achieved up to 90% fuel savings, significantly lowering emissions and noise while maintaining uninterrupted power. This not only reduced operational costs but also improved site safety and environmental compliance.
The system’s smart switching technology ensures the generator runs only when needed, maintaining optimal load and extending service intervals. It’s a cleaner, quieter, and more cost-effective alternative to traditional diesel-only systems—designed and manufactured in Australia for Australian conditions.
Providing essential power for the Perth Karla Bidi Festival
Swan River, WAFuelfix introduced its hybrid generators, BESS and solar energy solutions to provide essential power for the sculpture during the Festival.
In a first for Western Australia, Cedar Woods launched WA’s first-ever residential community energy sharing network as part of Eglinton Village estate development.
Fuelfix was commissioned to provide a temporary reliable, scalable and low emissions power solution for the project to reduce fuel reliance and resultant emissions. Fuelfix Hybrid Power Systems were the ideal solution for the project.
Black & White – Power & Light (B&W) has been a stalwart in the event management industry since 2009, specialising in providing reliable temporary power and site/safety lighting solutions for some of the most memorable metro and regional events in Western Australia.
They contacted Fuelfix to supply a sustainable and efficient power solution for the the Boorna Waanginny: The Trees Speak event in Perth.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are hybrid generators?
Hybrid generators combine traditional fuel-based power generation (such as diesel or gas) with renewable energy sources (like solar or wind). They offer increased efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved reliability.
How does the HESU15 work?
The unit automatically switches between different power sources based on load demand and availability.
When renewable energy is abundant (e.g., during sunny days), the system prioritises solar or wind power.
During low renewable energy periods, the generator seamlessly switches to traditional fuel-based power.
What are the benefits of using hybrid energy systems in Australia?
There are 4 main benefits using hybrid units to power operations across the Australian industries:
1. Reduced carbon footprint: By combining renewable source of energy with smaller diesel generators, hybrid power systems minimise greenhouse gas emissions.
2. Cost savings: By using renewable energy, you reduce reliance on expensive fossil fuels and reduce significantly your operational costs related to fuel consumption and equipment refuelling services and maintenance.
3. Grid independence: Hybrid generators provide backup power during grid outages.
4. Adaptability: Hybrid power generation systems can be customised for various applications, from residential to industrial.
Why choose Fuelfix HESU units for your energy needs?
HESU units provide a sustainable solution by utilising both conventional and green energy sources.
They offer flexibility, allowing you to switch between fuel and renewable energy based on availability and demand.
In Australia, where environmental consciousness is high, hybrid generators align well with the country's energy goals and businesses ESG objectives.
What types of projects are hybrid energy systems best suited for?
Hybrid power solutions are ideal for powering temporary site infrastructure such as crib huts, diesel storage tanks, remote offices, and event setups. It has been successfully deployed in a range of real-world scenarios including:
A civil construction project with Wormall Civil, where it supported site operations with significant fuel and operational cost savings.
An urban residential development by Cedar Woods, where its low-noise operation made it suitable for noise-sensitive environments near homes.
The Perth Festival, where it powered a temporary crib office for the electrical contractor, delivering clean and quiet energy in a public-facing event space.
Are hybrid gensets suitable for remote areas in Australia?
Absolutely! Hybrid systems are ideal for off-grid locations where connecting to the main power grid is challenging.
They ensure reliable power supply even in remote mining sites, agricultural areas, or eco-tourism destinations.
What maintenance is required for hybrid generators?
As hybrid units use a lot less fuel than traditional diesel generators, its maintenance and refuelling intervals are extended by 3-4 times, significantly reducing operational costs, increasing plant lifespan and reducing safety issues related to workers on site.
The unit's maintenance includes checking fuel levels, cleaning solar panels, and inspecting battery health.
Professional servicing ensures optimal performance and longevity.
Can HESU15 be integrated with solar panels?
Yes, hybrid systems can be configured to work in conjunction with solar panels (Fuelfix solar skids or solar trailer for example).
The integration allows seamless coordination between solar, battery storage, and backup generators.
How do hybrid technology contribute to energy resilience during extreme weather events?
Hybrid power systems provide backup power during storms, bushfires, or other emergencies.
Their ability to switch between energy sources ensures continuous operation.
How much fuel can I save with the HESU15?
Savings will vary depending on the application. When paired with a solar skid, the HESU15 can reduce diesel consumption by up to 90%, significantly lowering operational costs and environmental impact.
What incentives or rebates are available for eco-friendly power system in Australia?
The Australian government offers incentives for renewable energy adoption, including hybrid systems.
Check with local authorities or energy providers for specific programs and rebates.
