Award Criteria

Purpose of the Product

The Solarator™ Fold-Out 60+ kW is a solar-powered renewable generator with a deployable microgrid and battery bank, providing continuous power 365 days a year, 24/7. Built out of new 20’ shipping containers, this generator is designed for sites that are remote and need secure power. Each unit is transportable, securable, and can be fully customized to a customer’s specific needs, including hybrid and microgrid compatibility. An optional and redundant (bio)diesel generator offers backup power to ensure an uninterrupted power supply.

Typically, a Solarator™ can power numerous modular buildings, such as several ground-level offices and/or workforce housing structures.

Innovation in the areas of Productivity, Safety, and Product Installation.

Installation: The Solarator™ is easily transportable by road, rail, or sea, and can be deployed in remote, regional, and urban environments based on a customer’s demand and energy requirements.
The Solarator™ can be rapidly deployed by 1 to 2 individuals within 30 minutes.
The fold-out solar array can be quickly closed during harsh weather conditions and then quickly redeployed once the storm passes.

Safety: The Solarator™ provides a safe, clean, and secure solar-powered alternative to standard diesel generators.

Productivity: The Solarator™ eliminates diesel fuel requirements from sites, saving teams a considerable amount of time and energy - especially as diesel fuel costs rise. Once the unit is deployed, the customer can expect continuous power, 365 days a year, 24/7, with minimal maintenance required.
All Solarators® utilize real-time data and performance tracking to produce CO2 & cost-saving reports, and can be remotely monitored and controlled.

Innovation in Usability, Durability, and Cost Effectiveness

Built out of a new corten steel 20’ shipping container, our Solarators are as durable as they get. The corrugated walls provide additional strength and rigidity, enabling the container to easily handle all weather conditions, which are often found in many of the harsh environments in which these units are placed.

The fold-out solar array can be quickly closed during harsh weather conditions and then quickly redeployed once the storm passes, allowing our customers to protect the solar arrays and racking system inside the durable container. The built-in battery bank allows the unit to continue providing power to the site even while the solar arrays are packed up.

Solarators enable businesses and communities to save significantly on fuel and operating costs (compared to diesel alternatives). The ROI of a Solarator compared to diesel alternatives is typically around 18-24 months.
Real-time carbon emission data & reporting help firms easily conform to ESG and CSR goals & requirements.

Innovation in Sustainability

The Solarator™ meets the emission standards set by the EPA to be classified as a Tier III and Tier IV generator.
Our HELIOS Solarator™ solutions are 100% U.S.-made, something that is becoming rarer in the solar & sustainability industries.
The mission of our HELIOS Solarator™ product range is clear: to replace diesel-generated power. Since our Solarator™ renewable generators are 100% solar-powered renewable energy systems, these products eliminate the need for diesel, therefore significantly reducing our customers’ emission outputs.
Our Solarator™ products offer a reliable replacement for diesel generators & diesel reefer containers, which are extremely common in many industries where our Solarators™ are found, including (but not limited to): Infrastructure & Construction, Mining, Government, Defense, Aid & Development, Agriculture, Aquaculture & Fisheries, and Events.
