What we do

Operations & Maintenance

Unity Power Ltd, with its team of highly experienced Power Engineers are able to offer this service to you.

Operations and Maintenance typically includes the day-to-day activities necessary for the asset and its associated systems and equipment, to perform their intended function, and should also ensure the assets continue to operate safely and effectively for their expected life cycle and minimise expensive and disruptive downtime of your Plant, be it Distribution, Transmission or Generation. LV & HV O&M is crucial for sectors with dedicated infrastructure, i.e. Renewable Energy / Transition Schemes such as BESS, Wind Farms & Solar, Data Centres & Industrial / Private Grid / Distribution Networks, Construction and Building Services.

As the owner of a High Voltage Electrical Network, you will have a legal obligation under the Electricity At Work Regulations 1989, to ensure you have a ‘Safe System of Work’ in place and that the network is maintained and operated by FULLY Competent Engineers.

To ensure your site and equipment are compliant with current Legal requirements and Legislation, our highly skilled team at Unity Power Ltd are all experienced Power Engineers who are competent in the Operation and Maintenance of both LV and HV equipment.
