All industries and sectors are accelerating efforts to meet sustainability targets, and the 2030 and 2050 milestones. Stakeholder expectations, economic feasibility, and regulatory compliance are all factors that impact industrial utility-focused investments for the coming decades.
Reaching these milestones won’t happen overnight. But like every journey, the first step is often the hardest. This is where people make a difference. We believe passion and commitment drive real change.
At Atlas Copco Rental, we help you identify and tackle the CO₂ challenges hiding in your utilities, processes, and project plans. Whether it’s powering tough applications or dealing with a fluctuating production line, discover how we can help:
Your utilities, like compressed air, nitrogen, steam or power, often account for a big part of your energy use and emissions. Upgrading them can make a real difference.
So why isn’t it done more often? Because overhauling a utility room requires a major investment—one that's tough to justify, especially when future needs are uncertain. Even if it could lead to significant energy savings.
Here’s where we come in:
We have an extensive range of industrial solutions at your disposal.
Production isn’t always steady. Orders come and go, seasons change, and projects vary. But your utilities don’t always keep up.
If your setup is sized for peaks, you’re wasting energy during quieter times. If it’s built for base load, it might not be enough when things get busy.

Some jobs are just as demanding as extreme weather, remote sites, and lack of access to power. In those cases, diesel-driven solutions might be the only option.
But even diesel can be done cleaner:
Not all diesel units are the same. We’ll help you choose the cleanest option that still gets the job done.
You’ve probably heard, more and more companies are stuck waiting for a heavier grid connection. Not exactly surprising: electricity demand is booming, driven by industrial batteries, e-boilers, data centers, and fast-charging infrastructure. Businesses want to go greener and electrify operations, but the grid isn’t keeping up.
The result?
So what’s the answer? Flexibility and creativity in energy use — hybrid power, efficient compressors, battery storage systems … Talk to an expert and learn how we can help!
The drive for decarbonization brings special projects to unique places. Bubble curtains are an example of leveraging compressed air to protect marine environments. In many of these cases, diesel is the only feasible power source. But there are ways to reduce your footprint:
Not all diesel-driven units are the same. We help you calculate the impact of your solution!
Are diesel driven compressors or generators the only option for your remote projects? Consider HVO, it significantly reduces CO2 emissions.
Comply with the world’s most stringent emission standards with our Stage V / Tier 4 final equipment.
Combine battery storage with traditional solutions. Perfect for peak demands or off-grid use.
Power available on site? Electric-driven air compressors are easy to connect, low-maintenance, and boost uptime.

Rapid deployment of a QAC 1100 generator safeguards production and prevents inventory loss at a major food & beverage site in South Africa.
While the media often zooms in on the energy transition for households and small consumers, we tend to overlook where the real challenge lies: in the industry. Delivering high power with minimal emissions; that’s the key issue.
With Project 30-50, Atlas Copco Rental is making emission reduction more accessible for companies with a temporary need for compressed air, nitrogen, power, cooling, dewatering, or steam. Through this initiative, customers can rent energy-efficient solutions, like Stage V compressors and generators, hybrid energy systems, HVO fuel, and more, without the need for capital investment. This marks a significant turning point, especially for fossil-fueled industries, where most of our customers operate.
Combining the right equipment with in-depth application knowledge and a data-driven approach makes all the difference.
When hardware and software work together, you get scalable and measurable solutions. Think of hybrid generators and battery systems that are intelligently monitored and controlled. That combination is crucial for effective CO₂ emission reduction.
From compressed air and nitrogen supply to on-site steam generation and power, we offer a wide range of equipment to meet your needs.
Think of an application that uses compressed air, nitrogen, power, steam, … and we have handled it.
We provide upfront emission estimates for every proposed solution. During your rental, we track performance and keep things running efficiently, and once the job’s done, you’ll get a full energy report based on the actual performance of your rental solution.
Whether you are planning a project or have an emergency, we are available 24/7.
Our commitment to green practices shines at our South Shields facility, where we've implemented measures like LED lighting, electric vehicle charging points, and solar panels supplying 45% of our energy needs. Every action, big or small, brings us closer to carbon neutrality.
