    Reliable Power for One of Houston's Largest Underground Infrastructure Projects.

    Reliable Prime Power for Critical Underground Construction 

    When uninterrupted power is mission-critical, reliability isn't optional.  

    HIPOWER SYSTEMS partnered with Boyer, Inc. to provide dependable prime power for one of the City of Houston's largest wastewater infrastructure improvement projects. Working nearly 7,800 feet underground, Boyer required a robust, long-term power solution capable of supporting heavy-duty tunneling equipment while maintaining continuous operation under demanding jobsite conditions.

    To meet these requirements, Boyer selected the HIPOWER Twin-Pack HRVW-1250, delivering the performance, flexibility, and reliability needed to keep this critical project moving forward without interruption.

    Project Overview

    The City of Houston awarded Boyer, Inc. a major wastewater flow diversion project connecting the East Wastewater Treatment Plant to the Southeast Plant. The work required extensive underground tunneling using heavy-duty boring equipment operating approximately 7,800 feet in length and 60 feet below ground.  Because the generator had to be installed before any other equipment could access the site, power availability, reliability, and long-term performance were essential from day one.

    The Challenge 

     This demanding application required a power solution capable of: 

    • Delivering continuous prime power for heavy-duty tunneling equipment  
    • Handling large startup loads and sudden load spikes  
    • Providing reserve power whenever additional torque was required
    • Operating reliably in Houston's heat, humidity, and challenging weather conditions  
    • Remaining on-site for an extended project duration Providing simple operation for field personnel through on-site training

    The HIPOWER Solution

    Boyer, Inc. selected the HIPOWER Twin-Pack HRVW-1250, featuring two 625 kVA generators mounted on a single trailer and operating in Power Management Mode. This intelligent configuration allows one generator to operate as the primary unit while the second automatically starts whenever additional load is required. As demand decreases, the second unit returns to standby, maximizing fuel efficiency while ensuring reserve power is always available.

    Key Advantages:

    • Continuous, uninterrupted power 
    • Automatic response to changing load demands 
    • Intelligent load sharing between generators 
    • Reserve power available for peak equipment demand 
    • Reduced light-load operation 
    • User-friendly Camlock distribution panel for simplified installation 
    • Flexible operating modes for varying jobsite requirements

    Results 

    The HIPOWER Twin-Pack delivered exactly what Boyer required:

    1. Continuous operation without downtime 
    2. Reliable power for demanding tunneling equipment 
    3. Automatic power management during changing load conditions
    4. Consistent performance throughout daily operations 
    5. Increased confidence through HIPOWER's on-site training and technical support 

    The project remains ongoing, and the HIPOWER Twin-Pack continues to exceed expectations while supplying the critical power needed to support Boyer's operations for the City of Houston.
