The Green Column

A 21st Century Lighting Concept

The Green Column is an environmentally friendly, cost saving solution to provide amenity lighting at remote sites. Locations previously considered too far from the grid but that require lighting can now be considered for a green column.

The wind and solar powered solution delivers free, renewable energy which is stored in a battery ready to be consumed when darkness falls.

• Tired of digging trenches for complicated underground cables to install your generator ?
• Are you wary of lighting solutions that could potentially disturb or pollute the surrounding natural environment ?
• Do you think that such a solution would be not only extremely expensive, but also difficult to set up and even harder to maintain ?

There is a solution that will solve just these sorts of problems and more. Read the Green Column data sheet here.

• Imagine being able to install a generator without having to excavate expensive trenches on your property and deal with bulky and unreliable generators to provide off-grid power.
• Wouldn’t it be great to know that you are able to provide lighting for your off-grid holiday home knowing that you are not damaging the beautiful nature around you?
• Imagine that all this can be provided at an affordable price with no complicated installation or maintenance necessary.

Green Columns are already in use all over the UK on footpaths, playgrounds and car parks. The columns are powered by a Rutland Windcharger and BP Solar photovoltaic panels. The small discreet wind turbine and solar panel quietly and efficiently generate sufficient power to run lighting for up to 16 hours per day.
