When Cummins required a secure housing solution for a new energy regeneration system, we designed and delivered a bespoke container conversion capable of accommodating the specialist electrical equipment involved.
The project centred around two modified 40ft high cube shipping containers configured in a stacked arrangement, creating a compact and practical enclosure for equipment designed to recover energy generated during diesel engine testing.
Cummins is a global engineering company with a long history in power generation, engines and energy technologies. As part of its ongoing work to improve energy efficiency across its operations, the company developed a system designed to recover electricity generated during diesel engine testing and feed it back into the national grid.
The project formed part of a wider initiative to make better use of energy that would otherwise be lost during testing processes.
Cummins required a containerised structure capable of housing the equipment needed to support its energy regeneration system at a UK facility.
The solution needed to accommodate a range of electrical infrastructure within a relatively compact footprint while also providing an environment suitable for the safe operation of the equipment. The project called for a practical design that could bring multiple systems together within a single containerised installation.
Our in-house Conversions team designed and modified two 40ft high cube shipping containers to create a dedicated enclosure for Cummins’ energy regeneration equipment. Configured in a stacked arrangement, the containers provided a practical way to accommodate the required infrastructure while making efficient use of the available footprint.
To support the equipment housed within the containers, the design incorporated ventilation, thermal insulation and cable routing. The completed installation provided a purpose-built housing solution for the switchgear, transformers and cooling systems that form part of Cummins’ energy regeneration process.
“S Jones were adaptive and flexible throughout the engineering phase, especially considering the effects of Covid-19 and the lockdown at the time. Their designers were engaging and contributed creative ideas to help us achieve this challenging project.”
