Mobile Concrete Solutions in action
Calliachar Wind Farm in Perthshire is typical of the work we do. We provided the concrete bases for 14 wind turbines, nearly 8 km from the main A826 up a forestry track. It was one of the most remote locations we've worked in.
The aggregate supply and back-up ready-mixed support from our quarry at Blair Atholl helped to ensure a consistent supply of concrete throughout the project.
Each turbine base required nearly 400m3 of concrete and we had two mobile batching plants on site - one with a capacity of 85m3 per hour, the other 55m3 per hour - either of which could carry out the full pour within 8 hours.
The challenge with all renewable projects of this sort is the remoteness of the location, a challenge that MCS takes in its stride. It's what we do.
