United States Marine Corps Deploys Critical Solutions’ MOJOs to Evaluate Hybrid Power in the Battlefield

Critical Solutions Inc., the designer of rapidly deployable, renewable energy tower systems, announces that the United States Marine Corps (USMC) is using two MOJOs for evaluating the use of hybrid power in support of mission critical communications for forward deployment groups.

Patrick Gallagher, Critical Power Solutions International President, stated, “Because our mobile towers utilize solar and wind generated power, they do not require grid-based power making them ideal for use in remote deployments. In addition, because the units do not use fossil fuel generators they do not emit a heat signature and are virtually silent, allowing for rapid deployment virtually anywhere in the world. They offer an ideal solution for border security in remote areas, a significant market opportunity.”

The MOJO is a rugged 26-foot telescoping tower system powered by four solar panels and a wind generator, which offers an effective, reliable and energy efficient platform to power mission critical applications. The MOJO was designed as a mobile, self-contained unit able to be collapsed by one person and towed behind any vehicle. When a tower is brought to its deployment location, it can be put in place and made operational in approximately 15 minutes. This creates unprecedented flexibility since towers can be easily relocated in response to changing ground conditions and needs. The mobile towers can support a wide array of security sensors and communication equipment.

Critical Solutions Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiary, Critical Power Solutions International, Inc., manufactures and sells a line of patent pending, self-powered trailer systems that can be rapidly deployed to power physical security and communication requirements for areas where power is difficult to obtain and/or where conventional power means are too expensive to deploy. The company utilizes non-traditional power sources such as solar, wind, and hydrogen to provide efficient recovery, backup and primary power systems. Please visit http://www.criticalsolutions.net.
