Coates has launched Coates Power & HVAC. Responding to customer demand for these services, the company will now be able to provide smart, innovative and seamless temporary air, power, climate and process cooling solutions for myriad use cases to companies across Australia.

Building on the company’s existing capabilities, the additional Coates service provides turnkey solutions for power, compressed air, climate control and process cooling, with an extensive range of custom-built equipment and end-to-end service and support, helping to keep an organisation’s operations running, from temporary systems and short-term bridging solutions to long-term strategies.

“We regularly work with building and civil engineering contractors to provide temporary power and ventilation solutions. We now offer a wide range of complementary hire solutions such as hybrid power systems to support our portable building complexes, resulting in reduced greenhouse gas emissions and significant fuel savings for customers,” Coates Power & HVAC manager Kurt Edwards says.

Ideal for use in industrial, engineering, mining, oil and gas and manufacturing environments, the company also expects significant interest in regional areas across Australia where its branch network and teams of plant maintenance people can provide local support to Power & HVAC systems. The first Coates Power & HVAC hubs will launch in Ingleburn in Sydney, Dandenong in Melbourne, Albert Park in Adelaide, Kingston in Brisbane and Belmont in Perth.

In conjunction with more regional branches, these hubs will offer customers a complete end-to-end solution for their power and HVAC needs, encompassing an assessment of customer requirements, system design, logistics and installation, power generation equipment, including generators and battery and hybrid power systems.

The hubs will also provide power distribution equipment, from plug-and-play to large-scale industrial solutions, air compressors and quality air equipment, chillers, air handling units, cooling towers and heat exchangers, air conditioners, commercial and industrial fans and dehumidifiers, commissioning, maintenance and monitoring and the demobilisation of equipment from the site upon completion of the job.

“We regularly work with building and civil engineering contractors to provide temporary power and ventilation solutions and now offer a wide range of complementary hire solutions, such as hybrid power systems to support our portable building complexes, resulting in reduced greenhouse gas emissions and significant fuel savings for customers,” Kurt says.

“Critical equipment breakdown is a showstopper, so limiting the impact of fixed plant failure and building more robust response or preventative systems are key. Coates Power & HVAC can mobilise quickly to address critical plant failure or work with customers to incorporate standby hire equipment into their contingency planning.”
