In this episode, we’re joined by Tim Doling, Director of Global Markets at POWR2, a global leader in clean energy storage solutions. Tim brings deep industry experience and a passion for sustainable innovation to the conversation, offering insights into how POWR2 is transforming the way the construction and rental industries approach power generation.

POWR2 specializes in hybrid energy systems, particularly their flagship product—the Hybrid Power Unit which integrates battery storage with traditional generators to dramatically cut fuel usage, reduce emissions, and lower noise on job sites. Tim walks us through how these solutions not only align with global sustainability goals but also make strong commercial sense for equipment rental businesses looking to improve efficiency and meet ESG targets.

This episode was recorded by Michael Larsen at the 2025 ARA Show in Las Vegas.
