Solar Trailers

Silent, fuel-free off-grid energy, roadworthy or site-only, export-ready.

Custom-built for remote sites and critical operations, our Solar Trailers are rugged, mobile solar power solutions that deliver silent, off-grid energy across Africa’s most demanding environments. These trailers provide reliable electricity with no fuel required – meaning silent operation, no fumes, and minimal running costs. Designed and built for remote and rugged conditions, each unit is fully self-sufficient and export-ready for use across Africa. Whether outfitted with a telescopic mast for lighting security and WIFI or used as a standalone power station, a solar trailer offers a clean, hassle-free alternative to diesel generators for your off-grid energy needs.

Power Anywhere: Mobile, off-grid, and silent.

Our Solar Trailers are essentially mobile solar power trailers – complete off-grid energy systems on wheels. They come equipped with high-performance solar panels and deep-cycle battery banks to store power, ensuring you have electricity day and night without relying on the grid. Each trailer is engineered to withstand African conditions: from intense sun and heat to dust, rain, and rough terrain. Whether you’re powering a construction site or bringing light to a remote farming operation, a solar trailer provides a professional, turnkey power solution tailored to your requirements. All units are roadworthy and fully customizable, so you get the exact setup you need to keep your projects moving anywhere in Africa.

· Mining & Exploration Solar Trailer: The ideal solar trailer for mining camps and exploration sites. Run dewatering pumps, drilling equipment, communication gear, and high-intensity floodlights deep in the field without hauling fuel. Our trailers’ silent operation makes them perfect for underground mining sites or sensitive environments, providing a dependable power source where traditional generators can’t go.

· Construction & Infrastructure Solar Trailer: Power your tools, site office, and lighting towers on off-grid construction sites with a mobile solar power trailer. Eliminate the cost and logistics of diesel fuel – these trailers deliver clean energy to build roads, bridges, and facilities in remote areas. Rugged suspension and chassis allow easy towing over undeveloped terrain, so your project stays on schedule with sustainable power on-site.

· Agriculture & Farming Solar Trailer: An excellent off-grid energy solution for farms and agribusiness. Use solar trailers to run borehole pumps for irrigation, electric fences, cold storage, or incubators for poultry – especially in regions where grid power is unreliable or nonexistent. Farmers can move the trailer between fields as needed, harnessing free solar energy to reduce operating costs and improve productivity without any noise to disturb livestock or neighbors.

· Events & Entertainment Solar Trailer: For outdoor events, film productions, concerts, and festivals, Solar Trailers provide silent, clean power that won’t distract performers or audiences. Use them to run PA systems, stage lighting, video equipment, and food stalls with zero generator noise or exhaust. Their mobility lets you position power exactly where it’s needed at venues, and the reliability of off-grid solar means your event keeps going even in areas with poor grid service.

· Disaster Relief & Emergency Solar Trailer: In crisis situations or natural disasters, rapid deployment of power is critical. Solar Trailers can be towed into disaster-relief zones to energize field hospitals, emergency communication centers, and refugee camps without delay. Since they require no fuel, relief teams avoid the challenges of fuel supply lines. From powering medical equipment to charging communication devices, these trailers offer a life-saving off-grid energy lifeline wherever it’s needed most.

With the ability to be towed to virtually any location, a solar trailer gives you the freedom to bring dependable electricity anywhere – transforming remote locations into operational hubs without ever needing fuel or grid power. This freedom to roam and deliver power on-demand makes our solution truly an Africa solar power solution for industries far and wide.

Standard Configurations Available:

· Compact Single-Axle Units – Roughly 2.5m–3.0m in length, these smaller trailers are easy to maneuver and perfect for light-duty needs or tight sites. Ideal for powering small tools, lights, or telecom equipment, they offer quick deployment and off-grid energy on the go (unbraked or with optional brakes).

· Mid-Size Dual-Axle Units – Around 4.0m in length, braked and built for heavier loads. These trailers carry larger solar arrays and battery banks to support construction projects, farms, or medium-sized events. Sturdy dual-axle designs ensure stability on rugged terrain while delivering higher power output for multiple devices.

· Large High-Capacity Units – 5.0m–6.0m heavy-duty trailers with double axles, engineered for maximum energy generation and storage. Designed to run demanding equipment and lighting for mining sites or multi-day events, these units provide continuous power with extensive battery reserves and the toughest build for Africa’s backroads.

Custom dimensions available on request.

· Solar Array & Battery Options: We tailor the solar panel array size and battery capacity to your needs. Whether you require a small 1.5 kW system or a beefy 10+ kW setup, each trailer’s technology is scaled so you have ample power and storage. High-efficiency panels and deep-cycle lithium batteries ensure optimal performance and long lifespan.

· Lighting and Mast Configurations: Add an optional telescopic mast (e.g., 3–9m height) for mounting LED floodlights or surveillance cameras. This turns your trailer into a self-sustained light tower or security unit – ideal for night work or perimeter security. Lights are high-lumen, low-power LEDs that can illuminate large areas silently, all powered by the sun.

· Power Outputs & Ports: Each solar trailer comes with integrated inverter systems providing standard AC outlets (220V in Southern Africa) and USB/DC ports as needed. You can directly plug in tools, appliances, IT equipment or even backup satellite communications. The inverter/charger units are compliant with electrical regulations and can even accept a generator or grid input as an emergency backup if required.

· Rugged Construction: Built on a galvanized steel chassis with off-road rated tires and heavy-duty suspension, our trailers handle rough tracks and long distances. The solar panels and equipment are mounted in vibration-damped frames, with weatherproof enclosures protecting all electronics from dust, mud, and rain. Lockable equipment bays secure batteries and inverters against tampering or theft – critical for unattended deployments in remote areas.

· Easy Deployment & Operation: Setting up a solar trailer is as simple as parking and pointing it toward the sun. Stabilizer jacks secure the trailer on uneven ground, and solar panels can be fixed or fold-out modules that deploy for maximum sun exposure. There’s no noise and no complex fueling or

Maintenance routines – just plug in your equipment and let the sun do the rest. A digital controller display allows you to monitor power output, battery levels, and system health at a glance.

· Branding & Custom Finish: Just like our other custom trailers, Solar Trailers can be powder coated or wrapped in your company branding or colours. This is great for corporate events or high-profile deployments – your unit will not only perform flawlessly but also represent your brand professionally on site. We also offer optional equipment like tool storage, work lights, or integrated tow-hitch locks, ensuring your trailer is fully suited to your operational needs.

Unique design features can include fold-out solar panel wings for extra capacity, high-ground-clearance chassis for off-road travel, and advanced MPPT solar charge controllers for optimal energy harvest. Every design detail focuses on reliability and ease of use – so you get “power on wheels” that works anywhere you go.
