Thanks to its high-standard features, such as compactness, high illumination rate, and low fuel consumption, in combination with great cost-effectiveness, the versatility of this model is incomparable!

Recently, our distributor Nishio Rent All Vietnam Co. Ltd. supplied our VTevo model for the North-South Highway project in Vietnam.

North-South Highway is being built in a very difficult area, and the contractor was looking for a mobile lighting tower equipped with wheels, lightweight, compact, and fuel-efficient. That’s the reason why the choice turned on VTevo, a model meeting all the required features and equipped with LED lamps combined with a low-fuel consumption engine, allowing a long running time and low maintenance costs. All these features made the customer believe this lighting tower is very suitable for use in the project.

The VTevo innovative lighting towers are designed to be environmentally friendly, compact, fuel-efficient, and easily maneuverable. Moreover, these models use the latest high-efficient LED technology, an important feature that has contributed to the success of this model. At the present time, in fact, using lighting towers equipped with LED instead of the traditional metal halide technology is getting more and more popular in the Vietnamese market, as well as in the entire global one.

This commitment has given rise to many achievements that have changed the idea of light tower as we knew it until today, such as the creation of the first model equipped with a hybrid power supply, the first battery-powered light tower; and next introduction (forecasted in May 2021) on the market of PRO technology which, applied to Generac Mobile lighting towers, allows them to be used in various modes, from hybrid to electric, right up to the use of solar energy, the first ALL IN ONE solution.

One of Generac Mobile’s main objectives is in fact to create solutions with low consumption and limited carbon emissions, and solar energy not only represents the primary source of energy on Earth but is also an alternative energy to classic fossil fuels, unlimited, renewable and 100% sustainable. For this reason, Generac Mobile has decided to develop the VT-Solar, a mobile lighting tower 100% powered by batteries, without diesel/petrol engine, recharged by solar panels installed on the machine body.

The VT-Solar’s battery pack is recharged by the three 300Wp photovoltaic panels during the day, so there is enough charge to run the 4x100W LED floodlights all night long. The MPPT charge controller with which the lighting tower is equipped is both an inverter, with which to charge the battery through the photovoltaic panels, and a charger that can be connected to an external power source such as the public power grid or a generator, so as to always guarantee the charge of the battery pack even in case of emergency.

In addition to this, there are numerous other TOP quality features:

• the VT-Solar is easily controlled through an intuitive manual control panel, to which an optional digital controller can also be associated to control all the values of the electrical/photovoltaic system;
• the three solar panels are retractable and packed one on top of the other (using special slide rails) when not in use, so as to optimize space in case of storage and transport, and can be tilted up to 45° to obtain the best inclination with respect to the Sun;
• the vertical telescopic mast can be manually lifted up to a height of 6.5 meters, and can turn on itself up to 340° so that it is not necessary to reposition the light tower in case it is needed to illuminate a different area;
• the slow towing trailer is installed as standard for easy handling; finally, a darkness sensor and a digital timer can be installed on request to make the operation of the VT-Solar totally automatic.

The VT-Solar joins the Generac Mobile range of light towers with the aim of providing customers with a further choice from the already numerous environmentally sustainable models in the range, allowing the customers to shrink their ecological footprint when energy use is required.

Big rental companies today are facing a problem: they must purchase many different models each of which must respond to a specific need. For example, some customers will ask for a full-battery model because they need total silence and zero carbon emission; some others will need the power of a generator-driven model; in recent years, thanks to the increasingly elevated environmental consciousness across the planet, many customers are looking for a hybrid solution or even lighting towers 100% driven via solar panels. Rental companies, if they wanted to follow this trend, would have to invest a lot of money and time in the purchase and management of heterogeneous and very different Lighting Tower fleets and therefore, however, a great part of the stock could remain on the ground, with lower rotation, creating serious difficulties in the planning of purchases and a longer return of investment.

Today Generac Mobile^®, the company that invented the first hybrid lighting tower already 10 years ago, introduces the “PRO”: not simply an innovative Tower Light model, but a whole new technology, designed to revolutionize and respond to all these problems by giving to rental companies “ONE” model that brings together all possible requirements of the new World Green Deal: diesel, solar, battery, and hybrid, all in one.

PRO IS ALL IN ONE, ONE FOR ALL.

Generac Mobile^® lighting towers today equipped with PRO technology have a particular “all-in-one” power system allowing the operator to choose the preferred working cycle among:

• Diesel Powered: power supply 100% from integrated diesel generator;
• Battery Powered: power supply 100% from integrated/rechargeable battery pack;
• Hybrid System: a power supply alternating battery working cycles with diesel recharging cycles, in automatic;
• Plug-In: plug the PRO into an external power source and it’s ready to work while charging batteries.

The operator has just to choose the desired working cycle with a simple switch on the control panel and it’s done: the digital controller will adapt the machine to the selected option. The great flexibility of Generac Mobile^® PRO does not stop at these innovative working cycles, but also integrate important innovations for charging the battery pack from external sources such as:

• Solar Panel Kit: a portable and stackable stand-alone kit for a green recharging of PRO units;
• Battery Pack: external battery pack, easy to use. Up to 40 hours without carbon/noise emissions;
• External power sources: connect the PRO to any electrical source (Generator, Main…) to use and recharge the lighting tower at the same time.

Solar Panel Kit and Battery Pack are both manufactured by Generac Mobile^® and are available as options, sold upon request with the PRO lighting towers.

Darkness Sensor and Digital Timer are both installed by default in every PRO Lighting Tower, and last but not least, PRO lighting towers have a dimmer to adjust the LED light power from 25% to 100%, allowing the operator to adjust the illumination and, consequently, the total running time of the machine.

The PRO technology is today already available on two models: V20 PRO and CUBE PRO. Generac Mobile^® has in fact decided to introduce the PRO Technology in the market by enhancing V20 and CUBE⁺, the most successful top-to-the-range models among the European rental companies.

V20 PRO: the perfect general-purpose unit, the V20 follows its natural evolutionary path with the PRO version. Thanks to the possibility of alternative power supplies and adjustable light power, the performances of this model are further improved so that it can be used in any application field, from simple construction sites to urban areas where the use of machines that do not produce polluting gases or noise emissions is mandatory. The new V20 PRO has a dedicated new trailer that allows our customers and all rental companies to optimize transportation costs, since this new trailer has a redesigned retractable drawbar.

CUBE PRO: one of the most stable, safe, and widely suitable Generac Mobile^® lighting towers for rental in the world of events, concerts, and public demonstrations. Today this model has the possibility to be used in an even more ecological way and, in combination with the external Battery Pack, will be able to guarantee uninterrupted lighting for tens of hours in absolute quietness and with zero carbon emissions. Another not negligible point of strength is that the size of the new CUBE PRO remains completely identical to that of the traditional CUBE⁺ and guarantees in this way the possibility to transport on a lorry as many as 20 CUBE PRO units, ready to use. Simply the best in the industry.

The great attention paid to maximising the number of units transported per truck is not just a logistical saving of money, but in Generac Mobile^®‘s circular vision it is above all a great saving of an ecological nature with an important impact in terms of reducing the CO₂ emitted by means of transport and logistics.

While V20 PRO and CUBE PRO are already commercially available (starting from June 2021), Generac Mobile^® is planning to turn to PRO other models in its range by the end of 2021, starting with the Hydro Power Box that is a must for rental companies specialized in events.

“In the last 12-18 months, the demand and need for lighting towers has become more complex. Customers are much more discerning and are more aware of new performance technologies such as Li-Ion batteries, hybrid power systems and LED lighting. This shift in demand and requirements are largely being driven by advances in the automotive, building and home automation sectors.

Mobile lighting towers by their nature must be robust, dependable and easy to use, but we believe that technology can enable greater control and smart use to improve the long-term flexibility and product performance.

Technology and IoT (Internet of Things) can also improve operation, uptime and reduce OPEX costs for hirers and operators.

As such products which incorporate technologies and bring together the fundamental characteristics and benefits of cost efficiency, usability and performance are shining bright. As a global manufacturer we take our cues from our customers who want to be able to manage their operating costs, lux levels and CO2 emissions in a much more autonomous and intuitive way than ever before.

We design with purpose and start with the basic DNA of the lighting tower product which delivers performance, efficiency and durability. We then blend our products with the latest technologies to improve the overall usability of the product.”
