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.
