Power Solutions

Here is how this works in practice. We supply complete power options for shoots across Austria, from silent power packs and battery power stations to mains tie-ins, distribution and uninterruptible backup for sensitive gear. Core power inventory is sourced from Vienna-based rental houses, the centre of Austria's gear-rental market, with larger power packs and specialty units routinely fly-in or trucked from Munich, a four-hour drive away, since Austria sits inside the EU single market.

Here is the short of it. Austria runs on 230V/50Hz EU-standard mains. Our team scopes the power package around the production's total draw and location mix, whether a quiet power packs for a residential street in Vienna, a battery solution for a noise-sensitive interior, or a high-capacity power packs package for a remote exterior in the Tyrolean Alps.

Here is the breakdown. Alpine and winter power logistics are central to shooting in Austria: cold December-to-March ski-season locations on the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, around Sölden in the Ötztal, or across Carinthia and Vorarlberg demand cold-weather power packs starting, fuel logistics at altitude, condensation control and careful battery running, since low temperatures cut battery capacity sharply.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Our team plans heated battery storage and power packs pre-warming into each alpine package. Remote locations across the Salzkammergut lakes. The Wachau Danube valley often have no usable mains, so power packs distribution is the backbone of the power plan. Non-EU shoots importing power kit clear ATA Carnets through Zollamt Österreich, with Vienna Global Airport the main air-cargo gateway and Munich and Zurich feeding shoots by road. Intra-EU gear moves freely with no carnet.

Power kit carries EU-standard insurance cover. Gear spend qualifies as Austrian spend under the ÖFI+ and FISA+ 30% rebates.
