Mobile solar lighting · built in the UAE
Portable solar light tower and mobile LED lighting trailer, built in the UAE
Light a work area, car park or event without a generator, fuel or cables. Our solar light towers put LED floodlights on a raised mast, powered by folding solar panels and a battery bank on a towable galvanised trailer. Add cameras to the same mast and one trailer lights and watches the site.
- Built in the UAE
- No diesel, no fumes
- Dusk-to-dawn option
- Camera + light on one trailer

In short: a portable solar light tower (mobile lighting tower or solar floodlight trailer) is a towable unit with LED floodlights on a raised mast, running from solar panels and a battery instead of a diesel generator. Emirtech builds them in the UAE for construction sites, roadworks, events and car parks, and can combine them with solar CCTV cameras. The price depends on the number of lights, battery size and quantity.
| What is it? | A towable LED lighting mast powered by solar panels and a battery bank, with no generator. |
|---|---|
| Built where? | In the UAE on a galvanised single-axle trailer with folding solar panels and stabiliser legs. |
| Lights | LED floodlight heads on the mast. Number, wattage and beam angle chosen for the area. |
| Control | Dusk-to-dawn sensor, timer or manual switch. Motion triggering on request. |
| Power | Solar panels and a battery bank sized for the hours of light you need. |
| With cameras | Cameras can share the mast or a second mast, so one trailer lights and watches the site. |
| Price | Depends on the number of lights, battery and panel size and quantity. Written quotation after a short brief. |
| Large quantities | Built locally for one or a few units. Larger orders can be manufactured to our specification in China or India. |

Why solar instead of diesel
Why use solar lighting instead of a diesel light tower
Diesel light towers need fuel deliveries, make noise and fumes, and stop when they run out of diesel. A solar light tower removes the fuel run and the exhaust, and is suited to sites near people, offices or sensitive areas.
- No fuel to buy, store or deliver.
- Quiet operation and no exhaust fumes.
- Automatic dusk-to-dawn switching.
- Built, wired and tested in the UAE for UAE conditions.
For heavy continuous lighting we size the battery and panels honestly and tell you if a generator-backed unit is a better fit.

UAE conditions
Built for UAE heat and dust
Summer heat
Batteries age faster when hot. We ventilate the cabinet and add battery headroom.
Dust
Panels need an occasional clean to keep their output. Cleaning can be part of a maintenance agreement.
Winter nights
Longer nights mean more lighting hours. We size the battery to the hours you need.
Wind
Mast height and stabiliser legs are chosen for the site. Lower the mast in strong wind.
Before you place a unit: Permissions and safety. Place light towers on private land with the owner’s permission. Public roads and spaces need approval from the relevant authority. Aim lights away from roads and neighbouring windows to avoid glare. Emirtech advises on positioning but does not issue permits.
