CRANE HIRE FOR POWER GENERATION

Ainscough is an experienced crane hire partner in the power generation sector, supporting installation, maintenance and decommissioning projects across the UK. Our knowledge and understanding of industry requirements enable us to meet the complex lifting demands of wind farms, energy from waste sites and power plants.

Safety is fundamental to Ainscough’s involvement in every lifting operation. We combine competent people, well-maintained equipment and established operational processes with careful planning and documentation where these form part of the agreed service scope. 

If you require an experienced specialist to support your power generation lifting requirements, Ainscough can help. Our extensive crane fleet enables us to identify a suitable crane for your project and lifting requirements.

TRUSTED POWER GENERATION CRANE HIRE

Power generation projects can involve complex lifting requirements, making specialist sector knowledge and lifting expertise essential. Ainscough supports these requirements through both CPA Crane Hire and fully managed Contract Lift services. For a managed Contract Lift, our technical and operational teams can assess lifting requirements, site conditions and relevant risks before planning and coordinating the operation within the agreed scope.

Where Ainscough is responsible for the lifting operation, our work is carried out with reference to applicable BS 7121 guidance and relevant LOLER requirements.

OUR POWER GENERATION CRANE HIRE PROCESS

For managed power generation lifting projects, Ainscough follows a structured approach that brings technical planning, project coordination and safety considerations together. The exact support provided depends on the lifting requirements and agreed service scope.

  • Project Coordination: We work with your project team to understand the lifting requirements and wider programme.
  • Lift Planning: For a managed Contract Lift, our technical team plans the lifting operation in line with the agreed scope and relevant site and operational requirements.
  • Technical Visualisation: Where required, CAD modelling and drawings can support crane positioning, access, working clearances and lift-feasibility assessments. 
  • Site Access Planning: If access restrictions or road closures affect the lift, we can support planning and coordination within our agreed scope, working with project teams and third parties where required.
  • Safety & QHSE: Our established QHSE processes support Ainscough’s involvement alongside relevant site requirements and the controls identified for the lifting operation.

DEPENDABLE SERVICE FOR A RANGE OF POWER GENERATION PROJECTS

Our teams have extensive experience supporting lifting operations across the UK power generation sector, including wind farms, Energy from Waste (EfW) facilities and other power plant environments. This experience gives us a strong understanding of the different lifting challenges these sites can present, from difficult access and ground conditions to coordinating complex operations around wider site activity.

Power generation projects can involve substantial plant and equipment, specialist lifting requirements and multiple teams working to demanding schedules, particularly for construction and large-scale decommissioning works. We collaborate with your project team to understand these specific requirements, coordinate lifting activity and account for changing site conditions, supporting safe and efficient delivery throughout the project.
