Renttix for portable power and battery storage rental businesses

Rental management for businesses hiring out battery energy storage systems to construction sites, events and off-grid projects.

Portable power and battery storage rental is a newer, lower-emission alternative to diesel generator hire, used on construction sites, at events and for off-grid power. Units are high-value and often stay on a single site for weeks or months, running up a long-term hire that needs accurate billing throughout. Renttix keeps your fleet, billing and maintenance records in one place, so long-running site hires are invoiced correctly and every unit stays serviceable between jobs.

Common challenges in battery storage rental

  1. Billing long-running site hires accurately

    Battery storage units often stay on one site for weeks or months, and manual invoicing makes part-period charges at the start and end of a hire, and off-hire periods, easy to miscalculate or miss.

  2. Tracking high-value units across a growing fleet

    Battery storage units are expensive assets, and without an individual record for each one, you cannot easily see which specific unit is on which site, what it has been used for, or when it last needed attention.

  3. Keeping units serviceable between long hires

    Batteries need periodic checks to stay reliable, and a unit that goes back out on hire without a completed service check can fail on site.

How Renttix helps

  1. Recurring billing for long-running hires

    Bills an ongoing battery storage hire automatically on a recurring cycle, with accurate part-period and off-hire charges as a unit goes on and off site.

  2. Full history on every individual unit

    Track a serialised battery storage unit's complete history — usage, service record and where it has been — so you always know the status of every unit in your fleet.

  3. Maintenance scheduling by usage or time

    Schedule servicing by usage or time interval and hold a unit off-hire until the check is logged as complete, so nothing goes out unserviced.

Frequently asked questions

Can Renttix bill long-running battery storage hires automatically?

Yes. Renttix bills an ongoing hire automatically on a recurring cycle, with accurate part-period charges when a hire starts or ends partway through a billing period, and correct off-hire charges once a unit comes back. That means long site hires are invoiced correctly without manual tracking.

Can Renttix track individual battery storage units?

Yes. Renttix tracks each serialised unit individually, recording its usage, service history and where it has been. As your fleet grows, you can see the complete history of any specific unit rather than treating identical units as interchangeable.

Does Renttix help schedule servicing for battery storage units?

Yes. You can schedule servicing by usage or time interval, and Renttix holds the unit off-hire until the check is logged as complete. This stops a unit going back out on hire without the service it needs.

Can Renttix manage a growing battery storage fleet?

Yes. Renttix combines individual unit history, maintenance scheduling and recurring billing in one system, so as your fleet of battery storage units grows, every unit's usage, service record and billing stay accurate and easy to find.
