Where Technology Meets Application
The future of warfare will likely include the ability to harness power from the surrounding environment, lessening the dependence on traditional power generation & logistics.
Solar Stik™ systems provide rugged, reliable power in a variety of roles:
Reducing the burden of fuel storage, transport, and generator maintenance aids in streamlining operations, especially when Forces are deployed into remote or austere environments.
At Solar Stik™ Inc, we believe the future of Portable Power will rely on product designs that incorporate “Open Architecture”.
For the individual Warfighter, having multiple methods to create, manage, and use power is mission-critical.
-
Power for Expeditionary Communications
-
Shelter-based Power Systems
-
Sensors & Surveillance
-
Humanitarian Relief/Civil Affairs Operations
Reducing demand, finding alternative energy sources and improving the energy security of military operations are among the goals of the Defense Department’s Operational Energy Strategy.
Solar Stik™ Inc. is proud to be a part of the transition. Our systems have been employed by DoD for several years, and to date, there are literally hundreds of Solar Stik™ Systems deployed by the U.S. Government & Armed Forces.
Solar Stik™ was recently featured in the magazine DoD Power, Energy & Propulsion for an article called “Green Solutions for Shelter Systems”.

Solar Stik™ Renewable Energy generators provide power for a variety of smaller-scale communications applications, especially those deployed in remote locations.
• Portable SATCOM
- Micro-VSAT & VSAT/USAT Terminals
- BGAN/INMARSAT (e.g., US Army GRRIP system)
• Microwave Relay Stations
• Deployed Wi-Fi
• Global Broadcast Systems (GBS)
• Radios/Radio Battery Charging
Solar Stik™ Systems provide power for a variety of applications, such as lighting, C4I, troop comfort, and security systems in shelter-based facilities such as:
-
Command Posts (USA/USMC Company/Platoon)
-
Combat Outposts
-
Observations Posts
-
Checkpoints
-
Remote Communications Sites
Solar Stik™ systems provide power for sensor and surveillance applications, including:
-
Ground Surveillance Radar
-
Acoustic and Optical Sensors
-
SIGINT Systems
-
Security Camera Systems
-
Field Warning Systems (e.g., “Giant Voice”)
-
Vehicle Control Point Systems
Solar Stik™ systems provide troop units, special forces, and Civil Affairs units tools to assist foreign partners with:
-
Medical Outreach
-
Telemedicine
-
Border Control
-
Water Purification

Post-Disaster Communications
Solar Stik™ offers a wide variety of power generation systems designed for the warfighter.
- Flexible Panel Systems are designed for highly mobile applications where a small footprint & high power yield is required
- Solar Stik™ Systems provide power platforms that are versatile, effective, and multi-faceted.
Lightweight, rugged, and portable, all of our systems are designed using five basic principles of design:
- Mobility
- Expandability
- Adaptability (Modular & “Open Architecture”)
- Self-Sufficiency
- Quality American Craftsmanship
All Solar Stik™ Systems can be assembled or broken down in minutes, allowing for rapid deployment in the field. The system can be deployed and operational for just an hour, or indefinitely. It is as temporary or permanent as necessary. Additionally, all Solar Stik™ components are D.O.T. approved for land, sea & air transport, allowing for easy transport and deployment of the Solar Stik™ System into remote areas.
The Solar Stik™ System is designed to operate in conjunction with existing power sources such as Portable Gasoline Generators, inconsistent Grid Power, or as an independent power supply when conditions warrant. All Solar Stik™ Systems provide as much autonomy as is possible for any given situation, while also mitigating against dependency on any one technology.
When compared directly to traditional fuel-driven generators, there is no logistical support, noise, heat signatures, or hazardous chemicals, and to cost to operate is significantly reduced.
Sales engineers are standing by to help refine your requirements and determine which System best suits your particular requirements…
