Sizing uses the same approved method as your formal proposal: connected load × coincidence factor, plus the largest single start-up surge, divided by power factor, with kVA rounded up. Crane duty is taken at 25% with a ×1.8 start-up allowance and other equipment at 50% with ×1.3; your proposal confirms these against your full itemised site load. Fuel reduction is derived from the two generator consumption figures rather than assumed, —% here; Manitowoc quote up to 70%, which is the ceiling the figure is held to. CO2 at 2.71 kg CO2-e per litre of diesel avoided (Australian National Greenhouse Accounts Factors 2025, DCCEEW). Specifications per Potain PA/PE Series data sheets.
