THE PROJECT



Pop Up Power Supplies Ltd® were pleased to be selected to provide outdoor power solutions for the University of Hull—one of the UK’s established public research institutions. Founded in 1927 and home to the Hull York Medical School, the university’s main campus is located in the historic city of Kingston upon Hull and serves as a hub for academic life, cultural events, and student engagement.

OUTDOOR HOSPITALITY FOR OPEN DAYS AND EVENTS


University campuses frequently host open days, freshers’ events, community gatherings, and outdoor hospitality. These events require robust and accessible power infrastructure to support lighting, catering, sound systems, and more. Traditional power sources such as generators can be impractical and unsightly in a prestigious academic environment, making subtle, permanent alternatives far more suitable.

To meet this need, Pop Up Power Supplies® provided a range of stainless steel power bollards, each 325mm in diameter. These units deliver reliable outdoor power without compromising the aesthetics or functionality of the university’s carefully maintained grounds. Capable of supplying between 220 and 400 volts and up to 125 amps, the bollards are designed to be both practical and visually unobtrusive—blending seamlessly into the university’s landscape.

Available in a variety of sleek designs—such as Parc Paris, Domed Top, Button Top, and Sloped Top.

Each unit supports temporary access to electricity in outdoor spaces—ideal for seasonal events and student activities—while maintaining the visual integrity of heritage or high-profile sites.

By choosing Pop Up Power Bollards, the University of Hull benefits from a sustainable and scalable solution that replaces the need for noisy, polluting generators. Our products offer not only utility but also elegance, enhancing the university’s ability to host outdoor events in a modern, safe, and efficient manner.

We’re proud to support educational institutions across the UK with dependable and well-designed outdoor power solutions. Interested?
