ERS Supply

For utilities and EPCs that want their own ERS assets permanently on standby. We supply modular, IEEE 1070-compliant systems with training, commissioning and spares, so your crews can deploy independently.

  • Own the fleet
  • Training
  • Spares & support
  • Custom design

ERS Rental Service - Restore Power Without Owning the Infrastructure.

Why invest in an ERS fleet that you'll rarely use? HTSE's ERS Rental service delivers a fully engineered Emergency Restoration System Tower when you need it. A 360 solution for emergency power restoration starting with logistics, installation, supervision and dismantling. You restore power faster while we manage everything else.

  • Engineering & design of the bypass for your span, voltage and soil
  • Transport, erection and supervision by trained HTSE crews
  • No civil foundation and no heavy machinery required on site
  • De-rigging and removal once your permanent line is restored
  • 24/7 emergency mobilisation, plus scheduled planned bypass

Why most utilities rent

Every hour of outage costs more than the tower. Renting turns a heavy fixed cost into an on-demand service.

Owning an ERS

  • Heavy upfront capital & idle inventory
  • Warehousing, insurance & O&M cost
  • Crew training & retention burden
  • Design risk on unfamiliar spans

Renting from HTSE

  • Zero capex — pay only per deployment
  • We store, maintain & certify the fleet
  • Our engineers design & erect on site
  • De-rigged & reused once you’re restored

Build your own ERS restoration capability

For utilities and EPCs that face frequent outages or must keep spares permanently on standby, HTSE supplies the complete modular ERS: the same IEEE 1070-certified, high-strength aluminium-alloy system that we deploy ourselves for customers, backed by the training and spares your teams need to deploy with confidence.
  • Complete modular ERS: towers, crossarms, anchors & hardware
  • Custom design for your voltage classes and typical spans
  • Hands-on crew training and commissioning support
  • Spares, replacement components and technical back-up
  • Guidance on storage, inventory and readiness drills

What makes up an HTSE ERS

A complete, interchangeable kit that every component engineered for fast field assembly and lineman safety.
Distributes load evenly on any terrain with no civil foundation needed.
360° base rotation for easy erection on sloped or irregular ground.
Interchangeable high-strength aluminium sections build any height, 33–800 kV.
Lightweight polymer crossarm cuts clearance needs and speeds installation.
Guys, plates and anchors engineered for all soil types and high loads.
A mini crane that slides up the tower rails, enabling erection without a full-size crane.
Integrated fall arrester, working platforms and steps for crew safety.
Tension insulators, shield-wire support and dead-end assemblies.

Frequently asked, questions

The questions utilities, EPCs and asset owners ask us most before a deployment.

The HTSE ERS Tower Solution includes a complete Emergency Restoration System Tower package: modular aluminium tower sections, articulating base, foundation plates, composite crossarms, guy-wire and anchor system, gin pole, fall-protection equipment, insulators, connectors, and all required hardware. With ERS Rental, HTSE also provides engineering, transportation, installation, supervision, and dismantling as a turnkey service.

ERS Rental is a fully managed, turnkey service where HTSE owns the ERS towers and handles engineering, logistics, installation, supervision, and dismantling. You pay only when the system is deployed. ERS Supply provides the complete modular Emergency Restoration System Tower for your organisation to own, supported by training, commissioning, documentation, and spare components for independent deployment.

HTSE Emergency Restoration System Towers are manufactured from high-strength aluminium alloy. The lightweight modular design allows rapid manual erection using a gin pole without cranes or heavy machinery, while providing the strength required for transmission lines from 33 kV to 800 kV.

Yes. The HTSE ERS Tower Solution is engineered for both AC and DC transmission lines from 33 kV to 800 kV. It supports single-circuit and multi-circuit applications, with tower height and configuration customised to the voltage level, span, and site conditions.

The Emergency Restoration System Tower can be configured as suspension, dead-end (tension), running-angle, herringbone, and chainette structures. Its interchangeable modular components allow the same system to handle straight-line bypasses, angle towers, and long-span crossings without specialised inventory.

Yes. HTSE ERS Supply offers complete ERS Tower systems as well as individual spare parts, replacement components, hardware, and accessories. We also provide technical support and inventory guidance to keep your ERS fleet ready for rapid deployment whenever required.

HTSE ERS Supply includes hands-on installation training, commissioning support, deployment guidance, and best practices for storage, inspection, and inventory management. This enables your field teams to safely install, operate, recover, and maintain the Emergency Restoration System Tower with confidence.
