Solar Power for Your Fuel Tanks

Managing fuel on remote sites presents a constant operational challenge. When access to reliable power grid infrastructure is unavailable, refuelling operations become inefficient and costly, requiring dependency on secondary generators.

If you look after fuel tanks on-site, this will probably sound familiar:

• Having to position tanks near a power source instead of where they’re needed.
• Losing time to cables, plug-ins, and shifting generators around just to run the pump.
• Extra fuel, noise and maintenance from running a generator purely for refuelling.

That’s exactly what Western Global’s 12V SolarPak Kit is here to fix. It fits onto the tank and uses solar to charge a dedicated 12V system that powers your pump- so your tank becomes a self-sufficient refuelling station wherever you drop it. Ideal for remote locations and temporary sites where power supply isn’t available. Of course, like any solar setup, you’ll need access to sunlight for charging.

Works with Western Global Fuel Tanks

Engineered for seamless integration with TransCube tanks, ABBI bowsers, and DEFCube storage units.

In the UK, the range comes in three configurations, built around different duty cycles and tank pairings, so it’s easy to match solar output to your weekly refuelling needs.

Solar power – when and where you need it

The 12V SolarPak Kit is made for off-grid pumping on busy, real-world sites. It lets you run your fuel pump system without mains power or a back-up generator- helping you cut running costs and emissions across construction, farming and equipment rental.

What you’ll get:

• Self-sufficient refuelling: Run your pump without mains power or a generator.
• Lower running costs: Use less fuel and reduce generator servicing.
• Site-ready build: Designed to cope with extreme temperatures (-25°C to 55°C).
• More sustainable operations: Reduce emissions and support your environmental targets.

Smart charging made simple

It’s simple to use day to day, with built-in controls to keep everything running smoothly:

• PWM charge controller: Helps prevent overcharging and manages power distribution.
• LCD display: Check system status and energy use at a glance.
• Heavy-duty kit: Tough cables, brackets and certified terminals for long-term performance.
• USB ports: Handy for charging devices on-site.

Ready for any site

The 12V solar charging kit has been designed with the realities of remote, temporary, and rotating sites in mind. Whether you are working on infrastructure, construction, agriculture, or events, it enables faster, easier refuelling without having to rethink power every time you move a tank.

The kit helps keep refuelling straightforward:

• Self-sufficient package for remote sites: Perfect where no mains connection is available; the kit is fully installed inside the lockable equipment cabinet, protecting components from the weather and tampering.
• Faster and easier refuelling: Remove the hassle of plugging into a power supply and avoid bringing in an additional generator just for the pump.
• Heavy-duty design for tough jobsites: Heavy-duty cables and brackets, complete with an Anderson socket, allow the kit to be securely fitted to your Western Global tanks.

By building the power source into the tank, your refuelling capability becomes as mobile as the rest of your equipment.
