Following a rise in demand for high-capacity temporary power solutions, Star Power has invested over £3 million in new equipment, significantly increasing its fleet capacity and nationwide service coverage.

The investment includes the addition of over 100 generators, cable packs, multiple battery energy storage systems (BESS) and distribution boards; supporting a wide range of power needs from planned projects to emergency cover. The new equipment is being deployed across Star Power’s UK depot network to improve availability and response times nationwide.

Orders have been placed with some of the industry’s leading supply partners as part of Star Power’s continued investment in fleet expansion. This includes a significant joint investment in new equipment from both Pramac and JCB. Pramac is supplying generators from 20kVA along with multiple new battery energy storage systems (BESS), enhancing our hybrid and sustainable power capabilities. Complementing this, additional generators across key power ranges have been ordered from JCB, further strengthening the fleet’s capacity to meet diverse and demanding project requirements.

Marc Cooper, Commercial Director at Star Power, commented: “This is a carefully considered investment that strengthens our core fleet and allows us to respond even faster to customer demand. We’ve worked closely with our key supply partners to ensure every addition to the fleet aligns with our focus on reliability, efficiency and site-ready solutions.”

The new equipment enhances Star Power’s ability to support complex, high-demand projects with flexible, scalable temporary power systems. Whether customers require a single generator or a fully integrated hybrid setup, the expanded fleet allows the business to maintain a high level of service and responsiveness across the UK.

To further strengthen our national coverage, Star Power has recently opened a new depot in the North West, strategically located to serve clients in that region better. Additionally, they are relocating their Bristol depot soon and expanding their Kent depot to meet increased demand, ensuring they continue to deliver reliable, efficient power solutions wherever they’re needed.

Richard Miller, Group Managing Director, added: “This is a significant investment in both our fleet and our future. Demand across our key sectors continues to grow, and this expansion ensures we can keep pace while maintaining the quality and speed of service our customers rely on. We’re focused on offering dependable, modern equipment with strong national support.”

With a continually expanding fleet and strong partnerships with leading manufacturers, Star Power remains a trusted name in temporary power generation hire – delivering tailored solutions that perform, wherever and whenever they’re needed.
