Renewables & Energy Transition

Engineering Infrastructure for Renewable Energy, Grid Expansion & Electrification

The global transition towards cleaner energy is transforming how electricity is generated, transmitted and distributed. Record investment in renewable generation, electrical grid infrastructure, battery energy storage and industrial electrification is creating unprecedented demand for modular, transportable and factory-integrated engineering solutions.

Simmonds Equipment designs and supplies engineered equipment supporting renewable energy developments, electrical infrastructure and utility projects worldwide. Our solutions simplify transportation, accelerate installation and reduce project delivery risk for owners, EPC contractors, utilities, OEMs and equipment rental providers.

Rather than manufacturing turbines, transformers or switchgear, we engineer the critical infrastructure that enables these technologies to be transported, installed, protected and maintained throughout their operational life.

Supporting the Infrastructure Behind the Energy Transition

Renewable energy projects require significantly more than generation equipment alone.

Every wind farm, solar development, battery energy storage facility and transmission project depends upon extensive supporting infrastructure including electrical buildings, equipment shelters, transport systems, workshops, control facilities and specialist logistics equipment.

Simmonds Equipment supports projects across:

• Offshore Wind

• Onshore Wind

• Solar Energy

• Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)

• Electrical Transmission

• Distribution Networks

• Utility Infrastructure

• Hydrogen Projects

• Industrial Electrification

• Energy Transition Programmes

Our modular engineering approach enables faster deployment, improved quality control and reduced on-site construction.

Grid & Electrical Infrastructure

Electrical networks worldwide are expanding rapidly to accommodate renewable generation, increased electrification and growing power demand from industry and emerging technologies.

Simmonds Equipment supplies modular infrastructure supporting electrical projects including:

• E-Houses

• Switchrooms

• Protection & Relay Buildings

• Control Buildings

• Electrical Equipment Buildings

• Auxiliary Buildings

• Cable Interface Buildings

• Site Offices

• Maintenance Workshops

Factory-built modular buildings reduce construction schedules while providing durable, engineered facilities suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Transformer Infrastructure & Utility Support

Power transformers require extensive supporting infrastructure beyond the transformer itself.

Simmonds Equipment can design and manufacture engineered solutions including:

• Transformer Enclosures

• Acoustic Enclosures

• Transformer Bund Structures

• Auxiliary Equipment Buildings

• Maintenance Buildings

• Equipment Shelters

• Operator Facilities

• Modular Utility Buildings

Designed to integrate alongside customer-selected electrical equipment, these structures improve project efficiency while reducing site construction activities.

 

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)

Battery Energy Storage Systems have become one of the fastest-growing sectors within the global energy industry.

Simmonds Equipment supports utility-scale battery storage projects through modular infrastructure including:

• Control Buildings

• Battery Equipment Enclosures

• Electrical Buildings

• HVAC Integration

• Fire Protection Interfaces

• Equipment Platforms

• Temporary Construction Infrastructure

• Integrated Machinery Packages

Our modular solutions provide flexible, scalable infrastructure supporting both new developments and future expansion.

HVDC, FACTS & Grid Modernisation

Modern electrical networks increasingly rely upon advanced technologies to improve grid stability, increase transmission capacity and integrate renewable generation.

Our engineering capabilities support projects involving:

• HVDC Converter Stations

• FACTS Installations

• Protection Systems

• Control Equipment Buildings

• Communications Infrastructure

• Modular Electrical Compounds

Factory-built modular solutions reduce installation time, improve quality control and minimise disruption during construction.

Offshore Renewable Projects

With extensive offshore engineering experience, Simmonds Equipment naturally supports offshore renewable developments.

Typical solutions include:

• DNV 2.7-1 Offshore Containers

• Offshore Baskets

• Lifting Frames

• Cable Handling Equipment

• Equipment Transport Frames

• Offshore Workshops

• Storage Units

• Specialist Machinery Packages

Designed for demanding offshore environments, our equipment supports construction, commissioning and long-term maintenance operations.

Hybrid Power & Temporary Energy Systems

Major infrastructure projects frequently require temporary power before permanent electrical connections become operational.

Our engineered solutions include:

• Containerised Generator Packages

• Hybrid Power Systems

• Fuel Storage Systems

• Distribution Equipment

• Temporary Electrical Buildings

• Construction Site Infrastructure

These modular systems minimise mobilisation time while providing flexible and reliable project support

Factory Integrated Equipment Packages

Many renewable energy developments benefit from complete factory-integrated systems delivered ready for installation.

Simmonds Equipment integrates customer-specified equipment into fully engineered modular packages including:

• Pumps

• Compressors

• Electrical Equipment

• HVAC Systems

• Fire Protection

• Instrumentation

• Pipework

• Control Systems

Factory integration reduces field installation work, improves quality assurance and shortens project schedules.

Data Centres & AI Infrastructure

The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence, cloud computing and digital infrastructure is driving unprecedented investment in electrical capacity and resilient power systems.

Many of the same engineering principles used across the renewable energy sector also apply to:

• Data Centre Infrastructure

• Backup Power Systems

• Electrical Equipment Buildings

• Cooling Plant Enclosures

• Utility Interface Buildings

• Generator Packages

• Battery Storage Infrastructure

Our expertise in modular engineering provides flexible infrastructure solutions supporting these high-growth sectors.

Global Manufacturing. International Project Delivery.

Renewable energy developments increasingly depend upon engineering partners capable of supporting international supply chains and delivering consistent quality across global projects.

Simmonds Equipment combines engineering expertise, global manufacturing capability and worldwide logistics experience to support utilities, OEMs, EPC contractors, project developers, industrial operators and equipment rental companies across multiple continents.

Our focus is on delivering engineered infrastructure that simplifies transportation, accelerates installation and provides long-term operational reliability.
