Power to save Profit

When storms hit Cornwall, power cuts can strike without warning. For homes this is inconvenient — but for holiday parks and businesses, downtime can mean unhappy guests, lost bookings, and costly disruption.

That’s why Watergate Bay Touring Park in Newquay turned to NSN Electrical for a reliable battery back-up solution.

The Challenge

Watergate Bay Touring Park is one of Newquay’s most popular destinations, welcoming thousands of visitors each year. But being based on the rugged north Cornish coast, the site is exposed to the region’s notorious storms and power outages.

The park needed a way to:

• Keep essential circuits powered during grid failures

• Ensure guests remained comfortable and safe

• Protect business operations and reputation

Generators were an option, but noisy, fuel-dependent, and not eco-friendly.

Instead, a clean and silent solution was needed.

The Solution = 96kW Battery Installation (With an option to go higher)

NSN Electrical designed and installed a 96kW battery back-up system, giving Watergate Bay Touring Park a powerful and sustainable safety net.

This system ensures:

• Automatic switchover when the grid goes down

• Silent operation with no disruption for guests

• Full electrical back-up across essential circuits (lighting, heating, security, reception & of course the BAR)

• Energy storage integrates with the huge site solar array and overnight cheap import rate

Why This Matters

For businesses like holiday parks, cafés, and shops in Cornwall, a battery back-up system isn’t just about convenience — it’s about:

• Protecting revenue during outages

• Maintaining guest satisfaction and safety

• Supporting sustainability goals by reducing reliance on diesel generators

By installing this system, Watergate Bay Touring Park has shown leadership in energy resilience and guest care, setting a benchmark for other Cornish businesses.
