Protecting essential renewable energy systems
Quinshield manufactures GRP buildings and enclosures around the equipment, access, ventilation, security and environmental requirements of each installation. Solutions can be supplied for both new renewable developments and upgrades to existing energy infrastructure.
Solutions for renewable energy projects
Quinshield can manufacture GRP structures for applications including:
- Transformer and switchgear enclosures
- Substation and grid-connection buildings
- Inverter and electrical equipment housings
- Control, telemetry and monitoring kiosks
- Battery energy storage supporting infrastructure
- LPCB SR1–SR5 security-rated buildings
- Multi-compartment equipment buildings
- Protector cabinets for ancillary equipment
Standard Protector cabinets are available for smaller equipment requirements, while larger buildings and specialist layouts are manufactured around the project.
Off-site manufacture for efficient project delivery
Renewable energy developments often operate to tightly controlled grid-connection and commissioning programmes. Delays to electrical or control buildings can affect the wider project schedule.
Quinshield manufactures structures off-site at its South Wales facility, helping reduce site activity and installation time. Our in-house capacity allows us to support individual buildings and multi-unit programmes with short, controlled lead times.
Lower-carbon GRP variants are also available for selected applications, supporting projects seeking practical reductions in embodied environmental impact.
Capability for critical energy infrastructure
Quinshield’s experience manufacturing transformer enclosures, substations, electrical buildings and security-rated structures is directly relevant to renewable generation and grid infrastructure projects.
From compact control kiosks to large multi-compartment buildings, solutions are developed around the technical requirements, site conditions and delivery programme of each installation.
