Meet Power Pack.
Utility-Grade Solar Lighting.
The smart solar retrofit that turns any existing pole and luminaire into a cloud-managed, off-grid lighting system. Plug and play installation, patented dynamic charging, and 24/7 Illumience monitoring. No trenching, no grid connection, no infrastructure replacement.
Solarize Your Existing Lighting, Keep What Works
Power Pack is a solar panel, battery cabinet, and Smart Off-Grid controller package that retrofits onto any existing pole and luminaire. Instead of replacing your infrastructure, Power Pack adds smart solar power to what you already have. It supports both AC and DC loads, connects to the Illumience cloud for 24/7 management, and includes 3 years of Energy-as-a-Service. Ideal for municipalities, campuses, waterfronts, and anywhere grid extension is impractical or too expensive.
- 3-year EaaS included: monitoring, maintenance, and extended warranty
- Plug and play installation with smartphone validation
- 24/7 Illumience cloud management with patented weather forecasting
- Up to 80% reduction in site visits through remote management
Why Power Pack
Retrofit Any Existing Infrastructure
Add solar power to any existing pole and luminaire combination. No need to replace poles, fixtures, or foundations you already have in place.
24/7 Illumience Cloud Management
Every Power Pack connects to the Illumience platform via cellular for remote monitoring, energy forecasting, proactive maintenance, and remote troubleshooting.
Plug and Play Installation
Pre-packaged cable harnesses and a smartphone provisioning app make installation fast and simple. No specialized training or complex wiring required.
Supports Any LED Luminaire
Compatible with both AC and DC loads, highly customizable light profiles, and surge current management. Works with the fixtures you already own.
Patented Dynamic Charging
Clear Blue's patented charging algorithm optimizes battery life with remote maintenance and lifecycle forecasting, reducing replacement frequency and cost.
Up to 80% Fewer Site Visits
Real-time data on all components plus remote troubleshooting tools mean most issues are diagnosed and resolved without a single site visit.
Why Passive Solar Add-Ons Fail
Adding a Panel Is Not the Same as Adding Intelligence
Stranded Infrastructure
Existing poles and fixtures sit dark because extending the grid is too expensive. Municipalities pay for infrastructure they cannot use.
Oversized Batteries Required
Without smart load management, conventional solar systems need 30-50% larger batteries to compensate, driving up cost and physical footprint.
No Visibility After Install
Traditional solar add-ons have no remote monitoring. When a system fails, there is no way to know until someone physically inspects it.
Costly Site Visits for Every Issue
Without remote diagnostics, every problem requires sending a crew to the pole. Components are often swapped unnecessarily through trial and error.
Power Pack vs. Conventional Solar Add-Ons
A side-by-side comparison of smart solar retrofit versus passive solar panel add-ons.
| Feature | Power Pack | Conventional |
|---|---|---|
| Compatibility | Works with any existing pole and luminaire (AC & DC) | Requires specific proprietary hardware |
| Remote Management | 24/7 Illumience cloud monitoring with cellular connectivity | None or limited |
| Installation | Plug and play with smartphone validation app | Complex wiring, experienced personnel needed |
| Battery Optimization | Patented dynamic charging extends battery life, smaller batteries possible | 30-50% larger batteries needed, shorter lifespan |
| Troubleshooting | Remote diagnostics, solar panel test, short circuit reset | Drive to the pole for every issue |
| Ongoing Support | 3 years of EaaS monitoring and maintenance included | You are on your own |
