Your challenges - Our solutions
Rising energy and maintenance costs for street and public space lighting
Permanent solar street lights and bollards deliver reliable, year-round illumination with zero electricity costs and significantly reduced maintenance requirements – removing ongoing energy spend and lowering whole-life costs.
Meeting Net Zero, air quality and carbon reduction commitments
Solar-first lighting and hybrid power solutions reduce reliance on grid electricity and diesel, cutting emissions and supporting carbon reporting, ESG targets and climate action plans.
Delays and high costs associated with grid connections
Off-grid solar lighting removes the need for grid connections, avoiding costly infrastructure upgrades and long lead times – enabling faster deployment across streets, estates and public spaces.
Poorly lit streets, paths and car parks affecting safety and community confidence
Well-designed solar lighting improves visibility for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers, helping people feel safer across parks, campuses, housing developments and public realm environments.
Disruption from trenching, cabling and installation works
Off-grid solutions eliminate the need for trenching and cabling, reducing disruption in busy urban areas, live environments and sensitive or historic locations.
Strict environmental and planning requirements, including Dark Sky compliance
Directional, controlled solar lighting minimises light spill and glare, supporting Dark Sky policies and protecting wildlife, heritage sites and surrounding communities.
Limited capital budgets and complex public sector procurement processes
Flexible hire, trial and phased rollout options allow you to demonstrate performance, validate savings and align with available budgets or framework agreements before scaling deployment.
Managing assets across large or remote estates
Integrated smart telematics provide real-time performance, energy and carbon data, supporting remote monitoring, proactive maintenance and reporting requirements.
Providing temporary or emergency lighting and power at short notice
Mobile solar lighting towers, hybrid generators and battery storage can be rapidly deployed for roadworks, incidents, events or emergency response – delivering silent, low-emission power where grid access is unavailable.
Trusted by public sector organisations to deliver safe, sustainable infrastructure
Supporting local authorities, NHS estates and MOD sites across the UK with proven solar lighting and power solutions.
Public sector teams have a lot to balance. You need safe, welcoming streets and public spaces, while working within tight budgets, ambitious Net Zero targets and ageing infrastructure. Traditional mains-powered lighting and diesel equipment often add cost, complexity, grid dependency and disruption.
Prolectric offers a smarter alternative. Our permanent solar street lights and bollards provide reliable, year-round illumination for roads, pathways, car parks, parks and campuses – without the need for trenching, cabling or ongoing electricity costs, and with significantly reduced maintenance requirements.
For temporary works, events and emergency response, our solar lighting towers, hybrid generators and battery storage deliver silent, low-emission, off-grid power wherever it’s needed – helping you respond quickly without relying on fuel or grid access.
From local authorities and parish councils to housing providers, NHS estates and universities, we help public sector organisations improve lighting and power infrastructure, reduce carbon emissions and lower whole-life costs – with proven performance in real-world UK conditions.

What our clients have to say
We’ve worked with Prolectric on several projects and they have consistently delivered innovative, sustainable solutions across the Defence estate. At Duke of Gloucester Barracks, their solar lighting provided a reliable, off-grid alternative to ageing mains-powered units, overcoming complex underground service issues without disruption.
Shaun Hobbs
Project Manager
We frequently need to maintain screens, set up temporary defences, apply temporary structures, or operate gates and sluices in an emergency during darkness. The beauty of the technology is that it is activated only as-needed by PIR sensors and without the fumes or noise from a diesel generator. The ProTemp light is easy to position using a fork lift. We can also transfer it to a permanent post.
Neil Lote
Delivery Lead, Environment Agency
After researching the product more, we decided to install 20x Prolectric ProTemp Temporary Solar Street Lights onsite. The deployment took less than an hour. The ProTemps produced an excellent level of light and I am pleased with their performance through the harsh winter months. As well as the savings from zero running costs, it has been fantastic to use a renewable lighting product from Prolectric. It otherwise would have taken 4 to 6 weeks to get power to site at a great expense.

Bespoke solutions for public sector estates
No two public sector environments are the same. From local authority streets and parks to healthcare estates, campuses and defence sites, each requires a tailored approach to lighting and power. Our in-house engineers work with you to design solutions around the specific needs of your estate.
We design around:
- Site layout and estate usage: from parks, pathways and car parks to hospital grounds, campuses, MOD sites and public spaces
- Operational needs and usage patterns: including 24/7 estates, emergency response scenarios, seasonal demand and varying footfall
- Carbon reduction and Net Zero targets: supporting measurable reductions in emissions, fuel use and energy consumption
- Planning, environmental and community considerations: including noise restrictions, heritage constraints and Dark Sky requirements
- Temporary and permanent infrastructure needs: delivering the right mix of lighting, hybrid power, battery storage and smart monitoring
Need something specific for your estate or project? We’ll help you design, configure and deliver the right solution.
