We work with a number of key transport and logistics customers who have adopted our products due to their quick installation, zero carbon emissions, zero noise and overall ease of use. Our permanent lighting installations and our temporary lighting and power solutions are widely used across the industry.
Airports, ports, logistics and storage hubs have various challenges, including environmental concerns, rising fuel costs, and the need for sustainable solutions. As the first-to-market solar expert we offer innovative solutions that help overcome these challenges and drive positive change in the transport and logistics sectors.
Reliable lighting
The need for reliable and cost-effective lighting solutions for high traffic areas, depots, warehouses, and loading areas is another challenge to overcome. Traditional grid-powered lighting systems can be costly to install and maintain, especially in remote or off-grid locations.
Our permanent and temporary solar powered lighting solutions offer a cost-effective and sustainable alternative. By utilising solar energy, our lighting systems provide reliable light without the need for grid connectivity, reducing the initial hassle and cost of installations and reducing the ongoing costs.
An additional benefit of our solar street lights is that they are protected against power cuts. As the UK electrical grid faces increasing demand from EV charging and a reduction in the use of gas, minimising the reliance on on-grid energy is a positive move that many large commercial estates are taking.
Reducing costs
With large sites such as those within the transport and logistics sectors, the cost of lighting these spaces for 12-16 hours a day can be extremely expensive. Lighting is fundamentally necessary for safety of those traveling around the site and commonly required for operatives to work throughout the night.
Transitioning to solar powered lighting provides significant cost reductions in both cost of powering each light as well as fixing cabling issues when they arise. Moreover, replacing whole units at the end of their lifespan can be expensive.
Our solar lighting solutions remove the need to worry about all of these costs and frustrations when things go wrong, and each of the components of our lights are easily replaceable, removing the need for replacing whole units, saving you money and reducing the embodied carbon cost.
Reducing emissions
One of the primary challenges facing the transport and logistics sectors is the environmental impact of their operations. Traditional diesel powered equipment contributes to air pollution and carbon emissions, exacerbating climate change and impacting on the health of those around the facilities.
Most large businesses in the transport and logistics sectors have set out a Net-Zero plan and will need to transition away from diesel generators and diesel temporary lighting towers.
Services
Lighting design
Our experienced team will work with your site plans and create a lighting design that is both compliant with British standards and works in line with your site requirements.
Installation
We install our columns, solar panels and lights providing you with a single point of contact responsible for your external lighting installation. Our team are highly experienced in installing solar street lights and have all passed background checks required for working on security sensitive sites such as MOD and Prisons.
Consultation
We can visit your site to provide free consultation and recommendation on how best to go about your project lighting. Whether it’s a new installation or replacement of existing on-grid lighting, our experienced account managers will work with you to find the right solution for your site.
Onboarding and setup
Whether a permanent or temporary solution your dedicated account manager will support you with the setup and configuration of your units to your precise specification.
Why our lights are the best option for the transport and logistics sectors
Our permanent lights are like no other. We were the first to launch permanent solar-only street lights in the UK and have continued to innovate and improve our products to ensure they work all year round, providing consistent and dependable light, even in the depths of winter.
Innovation
Our solar street lights automatically switch on at dusk ensuring the lit area has safe ambient lighting. When the PIR sensor is triggered, the light mode switches ensuring that when needed, the area has maximum light levels.
Greater Motion Detection
We are the first UK solar street light manufacturer to offer a 3-PIR sensor solution, rather than a 1-PIR sensor. This means that our lights recognise a wider range of motion on your site.
Customisable
We can offer different modes of operation dependent on your site requirements and virtually all of the settings are customisable for your needs.
Sustainability is at the very heart of our business. Unlike other manufacturers who are only just starting to, we’ve been reducing customers carbon emissions since our inception, that’s why so many businesses trust us to reduce their carbon emissions, save them money and remove the hassle of traditional lighting, whether temporary or permanent.

What our clients
have to say
Following our extensive engagement with the market to find a solution that was fit for purpose, a partnership developed with Prolectric which has enabled us to create a unique product and solution that matched our requirements and exceeded expectation. The Prolectric team were willing to invest significant time and resource to the project, to understand our specific needs. Additional confidence was then secured during the trial period. We trialled others, but Prolectric gave us the innovation, as well as the assurance and the commitment we needed.
Plant Director
Our experience with Prolectric has been nothing short of exceptional. Their ProLight Solar Lighting Towers have proven to be extremely reliable, even during the challenging winter months when daylight hours are limited. This reliability is crucial for our operations, ensuring continuous surveillance and security throughout the year. Prolectric’s commitment to quality and innovation shines through in their products. The ProLight not only provide efficient lighting but also serve as a sturdy base for our CCTV systems. This integration has significantly enhanced our security infrastructure, providing SmartWatch and their clients with peace of mind knowing that their assets are protected around the clock. We wholeheartedly recommend Prolectric as a reliable and trusted supplier.
Sales Director
We started working with Prolectric around 5 years ago – we were aware that they were leaders in providing Solar Lighting Columns and wanted to understand whether the technology could be used to power off-grid remote CCTV solutions. We were impressed with the build quality and the safety aspects of the products – electrically and especially with no manual handling of heavy batteries which so many similar solutions required. We have continued to work with Prolectric to develop our solutions; we have fed back ideas to make the units even better and these have been taken onboard and incorporated into the latest versions. Overall, a great innovative company to work with.
Major Multinational SecurityCompany for Defence Application
The great thing about Prolectric’s ProLights is the solar lights have performed really well since we took delivery earlier this year. The LED lighting quality and the fact they produce zero noise and zero emissions makes them ideal for our Hemington compound. Being able to remotely connect to the Tower Lights ensures that they can be measured and monitored all year round making it easy for Costain to report on the huge fuel and carbon savings. In addition to measuring and monitoring, the control menus can be remotely accessed at any time so we can easily and quickly change the on/off settings as well as all the other menu options.

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.
