TECHNOLOGY
What begins as a grove of solar trees becomes a self-sustaining ecosystem — one that connects people, powers mobility, and brightens public spaces, all while rewarding its owners with measurable returns. Each tree is both a sculpture and a source of clean energy, turning natural light into reliable, on-site power for facilities, vessels and public areas.
Built from corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel and marine-grade aluminium, every tree is manufactured to withstand exposure to salt, humidity and heat.
Type-approved, triple-laminate glass panels can be fitted with integrated lighting, transforming the canopy into a dynamic, illuminated feature that can display imagery or celebrate special occasions.
Technicals
Beyond efficiency, the design brings tangible, on-site advantages.
The elevated canopy provides natural shade for seating areas,
boardwalks, waiting zones, and charging points
— all powered by the trees themselves.
Each unit combines energy generation and storage within a connected system. With integrated batteries, smart sensors, and compatibility with digital marina networks, the trees continuously monitor and optimise energy flow. This transparent system ensures predictable performance, real-time data access, and seamless integration into existing smart infrastructure.
POWER YOU CAN SEE
Unlike large solar fields or offshore wind farms, these hybrid structures are compact and non-intrusive. Their installation requires minimal excavation or marine interference, ensuring a gentle footprint on coastal surroundings. This makes them a strong asset for marinas pursuing sustainability certifications such as Blue Flag, Clean Marina, or ISO 14001 — standards that recognise responsible environmental practices.
By generating and storing their own energy, they help operators reduce running costs, offset rising utility prices, and maintain vital systems such as lighting and security during outages.

POWER PERFORMANCES:

Each Marine Solar Tree produces an impressive 3.2 kW. Together, an orchard of 12 trees would generate a total output of 38.7 kWp, producing 74.80 MWh per year under UAE’s sun.
That’s enough clean energy to:
Fully charge three electric marina RIBs or golf buggies (46 kWh each) 936 times per year – covering a combined 131,040 nautical miles. AND
Illuminate Dubai Marina’s 154 LED lights (40 W each) for 12 hours every night. AND
Provide an estimated AED 337,500 in energy subsidies over a 15-year period, directly benefitting the client. AND
Power 12 multi-purpose hubs, each serving as a WiFi station, first aid point, information screen, and charging hub.
