Solar Power Pod

Harvest & Store Solar Energy for All-Night Lighting

Harvest & Store Solar Energy for All-Night Lighting

The Solar Tower Pod is a fully electric, solar-powered floodlight tower designed to eliminate the fuel use, noise and emissions associated with traditional diesel lighting towers. Built for construction, infrastructure, utilities and remote sites, it delivers reliable all-night illumination using renewable solar energy and intelligent battery storage.

With zero CO2 emissions, zero fuel costs and silent operation, the Solar Tower Pod is the sustainable alternative for modern worksites.

Large, extendible solar panels maximise solar input throughout the year, even during low-light winter months. Energy is stored in a high-capacity battery bank, ensuring consistent lighting performance through the night without the need for a generator.

100% electric solar-powered floodlight tower

No diesel, no refuelling, no engine servicing

Ideal for off-grid and noise-sensitive environment.

Powerful LED Floodlights – Up to 36,000 Lumens

The Solar Tower Pod is equipped with four high-output LED floodlights, delivering a combined 36,000 lumens. Each light head is fully adjustable for angle and focus, allowing precise control of light spread.

  • Directional or wide-area illumination
  • Adjustable mast-mounted LED lights
  • Consistent, glare-controlled site lighting

Perfect for site compounds, access roads, perimeter security, storage areas and temporary works.

Autosmart Power Management – Fully Automatic Operation

Built-in Autosmart technology intelligently manages power between the solar PV system and the battery bank. A daylight sensor automatically activates the floodlights at dusk and switches them off at dawn, maximising efficiency and battery life.

  • Fully automatic operation – just switch on
  • Intelligent energy management
  • Optional PIR or always-on lighting modes
  • Optional remote diagnostics via DataBox

Robust Mobile Design for Easy Deployment

The Solar Tower Pod is built onto a braked AL-KO single-axle trailer for safe road transport and fast on-site positioning.

  • Fully galvanised, high-impact steel frame
  • Hydraulic mast raising and lighting direction controls
  • Extendible solar panels for maximum exposure
  • Stabilising jack legs for secure setup
  • Forklift and lifting points for site handling

A 16A external charging socket allows rapid battery charging from mains or a generator if required before deployment or in low-light locations.
