With the backdrop of Ferrybridge Power Station, MAC Projects were engaged by Winder Power to provide logistics and lifting solutions for the new transformer ancillary components for Transformer 1 and 2 at the Northern Powergrid Kirkhaw Lane Substation.

With limited operating space, MAC Projects provided a safe system of work, contract lifting and transport.

Working with the experienced substation engineering team, the components were exchanged in a safe and efficient manner.

MAC Projects were contracted to assist with the logistics, handling and installation of 132kv SF6-Switchgear at the Beaconsfield Road Substation alongside Hitachi Energy | HVSS | C**t Data Centres.

Working along with the site PC, our team provided FEED, and operational delivery / installation of the Switchgear, alongside plant, ground protection and overhead crane operatives.

We look forward to continuing  to deliver our high standards and quality driven installation process for this and other prestigious data centre projects.

Making Light Work of a Heavy Lift for Scottish Power in Glasgow

Having successfully conducted lifting operations on all DNO sites, MAC Projects provide solutions and overcome challenges, ensuring that safety and quality remains paramount throughout the project.

With a business based on years of continuous improvement, our processes, our working history and experience speaks for itself. However, we are in a position to showcase and demonstrate our accomplishments and will do so over the coming weeks.

For example, on a recent Scottish Power Energy Network Project, when a conventional jack & skid wasn’t an option, nor a mobile crane position within the substation, we devised a plan and set in motion the process to enable a Heavy Lift Mobile Crane to be placed on an adjacent street.

With assistance from our equipment suppliers and others within the Project, all work was completed as planned and approved.

Together with our delivery partners, each week we demonstrate our attention to detail and execute projects in a safe and quality driven manner.

In this instance, working on a SPEN project near Edinburgh, we were engaged in advance to provide details around the offloading and installation. There were various options available, with our engineering contribution and decades of experience in delivering substation projects used at the front end. This helped to plan the design, the temporary works and minimise risk. All leading to a delivery installation that had a positive outcome.

Working on behalf of our Clients, delivering safe and economical project solutions. Quality driven installations that help save programme time. Which in turn, allows our ever-busy Clients to streamline their own engineering resource. Accomplishing more, together.

The aerial images are representative of a double transformer installation that was ‘not possible’ by mobile crane and required Jacking and Skidding. The engineered solution allowed for both Transformers to be installed in a single shift.

200% Leaner in an operational and commercial sense (than Jacking & Skidding), saving the client and programme 66%.

We are pleased to announce our Membership of the CPA - Construction Plant-hire Association. An Association that has its members and the industry that we operate in, at its core.

MAC Projects Managing Director; Liam McLoughlin

“The CPA is pivotal in the Crane and Lifting Industry; it is an Association I have admired for a long time. I have watched with interest their determination to improve safety through best practice and innovation. In addition, I have witnessed continuous improvement – borne from collated experiences and fresh ideas that have been derived from discussion and listening to members working in operations and engineering each day.

From a Company point of view, it is fantastic to have MAC Projects afforded the assistance of the CPA Team and wider community. We look forward to supporting the Association and playing an active role in the months ahead”.
