Innovation on the Road
At Genelite, we focus on developing practical solutions that meet the needs of today’s infrastructure projects. We’re pleased to announce that the first load of our custom-built, mobile hybrid lighting towers, are being delivered to a major local highway project. This project demanded a combination of mobile, efficient and environmentally-conscious solutions, and Genelite was able to deliver, with a custom-built solution that includes both a generator and battery storage on board.
A Balanced Approach to Innovation and Sustainability
In modern infrastructure projects, there’s a need to balance performance with environmental responsibility. Our custom hybrid lighting towers are designed with this in mind. By integrating a generator with battery storage, these units reduce fuel consumption and emissions, helping to lower environmental impact without compromising on reliability. They were designed as both skid-based and trailer-mounted units, easy to deploy and with minimal noise and fuel cost.
On the job site, this means consistent, dependable lighting with reduced reliance on traditional fuel sources. For the environment, it means fewer emissions and a more sustainable approach to powering construction activities.
Delivering on Time and On Budget
The Genelite electrical engineering team played a key role in ensuring this project was completed on time and within budget. In major infrastructure and road projects, timing and cost efficiency are crucial, so we’re pleased that our team was able to deliver this project as planned.
Specifications
As a custom-built solution, these mobile solar light towers were delivered in a range of configurations, including mobile and skid-based options. They featured 4 x 200W lighting panels and contained components from some of the industry’s most reliable brands, including Perkins diesel engines.
Benefits of Hybrid Technology
The custom hybrid technology in our lighting towers combines renewable energy stored in batteries, with conventional power from the generator as a auxiliary power source. This configuration ensures that our towers can operate efficiently, even in locations where fuel supplies might be limited.
For the project, this means reliable and uninterrupted lighting during critical night shifts with less reliance on diesel, and fewer refuelling trips. This makes these new lighting towers a practical investment for all large-scale infrastructure and road projects.
Moving Forward
Genelite is continuing to invest in the research and development of the sustainable range of iGO2Zero-branded products. The iGO2Zero brand features sustainable solutions from portable battery packs, suited to camping and leisure, through to large-scale hybrid power systems, meeting the demands of modern infrastructure projects.
Our custom hybrid lighting towers, with their combination of generator and battery storage, are just one example of how we’re incorporating sustainability and innovation into our products.
