Cutting 50%-60% of Primavera Sound Festival’s carbon emission
In today’s world, the push for clean energy solutions is stronger than ever before. However, for many power rental companies, transitioning to a clean energy fleet can be challenging. It is capital intensive and as a rental company you need to find the perfect system that matches your fleet.
To illustrate this, we’ll dive into a rehire booking with one of our customers, the Spanish power rental company Morillo Energy that helped the famous Spanish festival Primavera Sounds festival cut carbon emissions. Skoon has been facilitating smooth rehiring bookings for many customers like Morillo already, removing both financial and technical complexity for all parties involved in the rehire.
It’s not all that straightforward however, so let’s find out what the main pain points are for power rental companies going clean.
Clean energy is capital intensive
Clean energy is the future, and companies are increasingly recognizing the importance of adopting sustainable practices. However, the transition can be financially daunting for many businesses.
Investing in an entire clean energy fleet requires significant capital, and not all companies can afford to make this leap at once – certainly not if it’s hard to identify customers to rent your product throughout the whole year. This has been a major roadblock for those eager to reduce their carbon footprint but lack the resources to do so.
Finding the right clean energy match is challenging
Companies need to ensure that the clean energy systems they invest in will work effectively with their customer base. Every region and customer demographic has unique requirements, and companies must tailor their solutions accordingly.
Additionally, they need to consider the technical feasibility of clean energy systems within their country’s infrastructure and regulations. When looking for the right match, small details are easily overlooked if there’s no real world experience deploying the systems.
You have the service, just not the product
In the pursuit of sustainability, companies often find themselves in a challenging situation where they have to reject clean energy requests due to the absence of clean energy products. This can be disheartening for both the company and their customers, as they miss out on the environmental benefits and potential cost savings.
Additionally, not being able to deliver your excellent service to your customers may mean missing out on future jobs. If only there was a way to have clean energy product available, always.
