Cooling Technology in the Energy Sector – Efficient Cooling for Critical Processes

In the energy sector – whether in power plants, substations, battery storage systems, or in the generation of renewable energyreliable cooling plays a key role. Overheating not only threatens the efficiency of systems but can also lead to failures and safety risks. With the mobile cooling solutions from S.O.S Rentals, we provide the necessary process reliability for power-generating, -storing, and -distributing systems.

Areas of Application for Our Rental Cooling in the Energy Sector

Our mobile cooling systems and low-temperature units ensure controlled temperature management in the most sensitive areas of power generation and distribution:

  • Transformer & substation cooling: Cooling of oil- or air-cooled transformers to stabilize operating temperatures during high ambient heat or failure of stationary systems.
  • Power plants: Constant chilled water supply prevents overheating and ensures optimal performance.
  • Battery storage systems: Storage systems (e.g., lithium-ion batteries) require stable temperatures to ensure safety, longevity, and consistent performance – precisely controlled chillers are used here.
  • Combined heat and power plants (CHP): Re-cooling of waste heat from combustion engines or turbines to increase efficiency.
  • Hydrogen & power-to-X systems: Temperature-critical processes in electrolysis, compression, or liquefaction require low-temperature systems with high stability – down to −40 °C if needed.

Advantages of Our Rental Chillers

  • Temperature range down to −80 °C
  • Flexible rental solutions, e.g., for seasonal peaks or emergencies
  • Quickly available & ready to connect across Europe
  • Maximum operational reliability & consistent temperature control

Why Cooling Technology is Essential in the Energy Sector

A stable energy flow often directly depends on the thermal tolerance of the equipment used. Especially in summer, ambient temperatures rise – and traditional free cooling systems frequently fail. With temporarily rented chillers, bottlenecks can be efficiently bridged without the need for permanent infrastructure investment.

Typical Use Cases

  • Emergency and breakdown deployments
  • Peak load coverage in summer
  • Maintenance and modification of stationary systems
  • Test operation of new plants or storage units
  • Use in mobile energy supplies (e.g., wind farm construction sites, festivals with battery buffers)

Our Service for You

  • Fast response times in case of failure or peak loads
  • Technical consulting by experienced refrigeration specialists
  • Mobile and scalable systems for every application
  • Full service including glycol, connection materials & installation

From wind farms to battery storage systems and transformer stations – our mobile cooling technology secures your energy processes and helps avoid costly downtime.
