Introducing RAPID ROLL – a new patented technology for off-grid portable power
– a high capacity solar power plant with a rollable tow-out solar field deployable in 2 minutes:

LOWER COST THAN DIESEL
LOWER COST THAN DIESEL
The RAPID ROLL “T” trailer/tactical
version provides an extremely mobile
solution which can be airlifted by a wide
range of light, medium and heavy-lift
helicopters (gross weight from 1,500 kg)
but packs enough power for energy-
intensive operations. Easily mounted on
an on-road or off-road trailer or flat-bed
truck, the RAPID ROLL “T” provides many
options for deployment to practically any
global location imaginable. With simple
deployment in just a few minutes without
needing solar engineers onsite, it provides
a practical solution for humanitarian and
disaster relief, military, mining, events, film
production and other temporary power-
hungry operations in remote places which
require equipment mobility.
EXCEPTIONALLY COMPETITIVE
EXCEPTIONALLY COMPETITIVE
Alternative small-trailer solutions utilizing
rigid PV panels typically generate only 2-4
kW and cannot be deployed as quickly,
requiring skilled solar engineers on-site to
carry out the necessary cable connections
and system setup during construction.
The Renovagen technology provides up
to 10 times greater power generation than
the competition in the same sized trailer
and can be deployed in just a few minutes
via vehicle tow. It’s so simple to operate
that any technician can learn how to use it
with just a couple of hours training.
HYBRID OPERATION
In the majority of climatic and economic
conditions around the world, the optimum
Return-on-Investment (ROI) for off-grid
energy can be achieved from a hybrid
power system. Renovagen’s fuel savings
technology, integrated into RAPID
ROLL systems, delivers fuel savings by
leveraging auto start-stop control of
a diesel generator. This reduces the number
of running hours – and most importantly
runs the generator at its most efficient
operating point when it is required. We
work with customers’ existing generators
so that you continue to obtain value from
your existing assets.
06
HYBRID OPERATION
The technology also facilitates the easy
supplementation of hybrid power with solar
energy – from 0% solar to 99% – depending
on location and weather conditions. The
presence of the generator eliminates
“weather anxiety” and guarantees that
backup power will always be available.
Typically fuel savings of 50% to 95% can
be realised in the solar-battery-diesel
hybrid model. Implementing fuel savings
technology reduces the battery and solar
capacity required to guarantee 24/7/365
power and therefore significantly reduces
CAPEX in comparison with a pure-solar
off-grid system.
KEY APPLICATIONS
Ideal for short and medium-term
deployment to challenging environments,
the exceptional mobility facilitates rapid
response in critical situations where lives
can be saved by providing power to
mobile medical facilities, communications
and water purification equipment. Often,
in a post-disaster environment, fuel
supplies may be disrupted and even where
generators have been deployed, there may
not be sufficient fuel to run them. Just a
single RAPID ROLL “T” system can provide
enough power for a 120-bed mobile clinic
(USAID Category III standard) or to
desalinate 25,000 litres of water every day
without requiring fuel – a potentially life-
saving capability.
08
Target applications include:
Humanitarian & Disaster Relief
KEY APPLICATIONS
The cost of fuel delivery to remote Forward
Operating Bases (FOBs) may reach $400
per gallon (according to US military
estimates), due to the force protection
requirements for fuel convoys and flights.
On this basis, fuel savings may provide a
Return-on-Investment against the capital
cost of RAPID ROLL systems in as little as
2 - 3 months. With 3,000 military casualties
in fuel convoy protection alone in Iraq and
Afghanistan, reducing or eliminating the
need for fuel convoys can be life-saving.
Just a single RAPID ROLL “T” system
can power a Headquarters complete with
communications equipment, and a number
of systems running in parallel may power
an entire FOB.

KEY APPLICATIONS
Access to energy presents a great
challenge and cost to remote mining
exploration operations. The mobility of
the RAPID ROLL “T” system enables it to
provide value from fuel savings for such
operations which move on a regular basis
– for example exploratory drilling camps.
The environmental impact of large festivals
is coming under increasing scrutiny.
Often such festivals are located “off-grid”
and require noise and polluting diesel
generators to operate. The RAPID ROLL
“T” offers festival operators the ability to
reduce their carbon footprint, eliminate
noise for key performances and improve
the environmental profile of their event.
Events & FestivalsMining
Film Production
The noise and environmental impact of
diesel gensets when filming at remote,
environmentally sensitive sites presents
a multi-faceted challenge. Often such
projects are designed to record a rare or
sensitive environment itself, increasing
the level of environmental impact
scrutiny required. The requirement for
noise suppression means that gensets
must be “dug in” at a distance from the
filming location which is time-consuming
and can cause additional damage. The
RAPID ROLL “T” system provides an ideal
zero-noise alternative.
“Smart City” and “Smart Rural”
Utilisation of wasteland before
development, deployable Electric Vehicle
Charging, seasonal tourist and recreational
sites and seasonal agricultural uses –
the applications are endless!
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
The nature of the RAPID ROLL
technology is modular and scalable. The
solar photovoltaic roll can be provided
in different lengths depending on the
power capacity required. The battery
bank consists of modular building blocks,
so the capacity can also be customised.
This modularity offers great flexibility in
system configuration and also the benefits
of greater resilience from redundant
parallel operation of key components.
EXAMPLE PRODUCT CONFIGURATIONS– RAPID ROLL “T”
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT – RAPID ROLL “I”
Currently in the early stages of R&D,
RAPID ROLL “I” is a scaled-up version of
our RAPID ROLL “T” product with up to
6 times the power density of the RAPID
ROLL “T”, enabling very large power
systems to be deployed quickly and
efficiently from the minimum number of
containers. Economies of scale will drive
significant cost-per-watt reductions.
Key features include:
• A RAPID ROLL solar array up to 150kWp
or more (20ft ISO container), or 300kWp
or more (40ft ISO container)
• Up to 1MWh of integrated energy storage
per container (20ft ISO), or 2MWh
(40ft ISO)
• Coupling of multiple units in parallel is
possible to create multi-MW power systems
• Special deployment equipment enables
multi-MW solar power systems to be
deployed, fixed and up and running in
less than a day
For example, a 6MWp RAPID ROLL “I”
system could be deployed over an area
of 5 football pitches from 20 x 40ft
containers in just a few hours, including
up to 40MWh of energy storage capacity.
This capability will truly mobilise city-scale
renewable power and enable flexibility to
provide cost-effective sustainable energy
at large mining sites, humanitarian camps
and military Main Operating Bases.
