Aggreko announced the completion of an 82 kW solar PV system at its Los Angeles service center, marking the first time one of its facilities will meet 100% of its annual energy needs through on-site renewable energy. The transition to a fully renewable, off-grid energy supply is expected to save the center $12,630 in annual utility costs. Over the next 20 years, the installation will offset 1,968 tons of carbon emissions.

The Los Angeles upgrade represents a significant milestone in Aggreko’s broader sustainability campaign to integrate distributed cleaner energy across its service centers. Todd Aston, VP of Sustainability, North America at Aggreko, stated that on-site solar allows the company to meet customer energy needs while lowering costs and carbon emissions.

Aggreko has implemented similar initiatives at several other locations recently. Earlier this year, the company completed on-site solar installations at its St. Louis, MO and Bridgeport, NJ facilities. Last year, solar panels were installed at the New Orleans location. Additionally, four locations, including the U.S. headquarters, have transitioned to biofuel for internal fuel needs.

Project Impact

The shift to renewable energy at the Los Angeles service center delivers both financial and environmental benefits:

These efforts reflect Aggreko's commitment to modernizing service centers and advancing engineered power solutions. The company continues to deploy on-site renewable power to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions across its operations.
