The municipality of Schagen was assigned the task of accommodating 276 asylum seekers under the Dutch Distribution Act. However, the designated location lacked a power grid connection and was situated in a Natura 2000 area, which imposed strict environmental regulations. Pon Energy Rental was approached to provide a sustainable and temporary energy solution that complied with these environmental requirements. 

To supply the accommodation facility with power and heat, we implemented a fully off-grid energy system consisting of: 

  • Two BQ-S 400 batteries for efficient energy storage. 
  • A Stage-V generator running on HVO100, which only activates when necessary. 
  • A 600 kW central heating boiler on HVO100 for a reliable heat supply. 
  • 200 solar panels, installed by the client, to charge the batteries with renewable energy. 

On days with limited sunlight, the generator automatically switches on. To ensure compliance with the strict environmental standards of the Natura 2000 area, we engaged a specialized company to measure emissions. The results confirmed that our Stage-V generators running on HVO100 are clean enough to operate within these environmental regulations. 

Thanks to this sustainable and innovative energy solution, the accommodation facility became operational on time, without relying on the regular power grid and with minimal environmental impact.
