The Reality of Remote Work: Beyond the Power Grid
When operations move beyond the utility grid—such as infrastructure projects, utility corridor work, remote telecom sites, or off-grid film sets—reliable power is non-negotiable.
For decades, contractors relied entirely on diesel generators not out of preference, but due to a lack of viable alternatives. Running internal combustion engines in remote locations introduces constant operational headaches:
- High Fuel Logistics: Transporting diesel into difficult terrain, dealing with fuel surcharges, and scheduling deliveries.
- Spill & Fire Liability: Storing flammable liquid fuel on active, high-risk work zones.
- Frequent Maintenance: Changing oil, replacing filters, and dealing with engine wear and rebuilds on hard-running equipment.
- Noise and Exhaust: Subjecting field personnel to continuous engine noise and hazardous exhaust fumes.
Pulsar Industries engineered the PulseTrek lithium battery backup system to solve all of these challenges simultaneously by delivering clean, towable, industrial-grade AC power anywhere an engine-driven generator once operated.
What is PulseTrek?
PulseTrek is a high-capacity mobile energy storage system mounted on a heavy-duty, tow-behind trailer. Designed and manufactured in Texas, it delivers steady 120V and 240V AC power directly to your job site tools, heavy equipment, and mobile command trailers—completely silent and emission-free. Crews charge the trailer overnight using standard grid power at their home depot or staging facility, then tow it directly to the field ready for a full shift.

Engineered for Rough Industrial Environments
Remote job sites present harsh operating conditions. PulseTrek is constructed from the ground up for field longevity:
- Safe, Long-Life LFP Chemistry: The system utilizes Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) cells, providing over 6,000 charge cycles. Unlike traditional lithium chemistries, LFP avoids thermal runaway risks even in extreme heat or demanding discharge situations.
- Extreme Weather Protection: Housed inside a NEMA 3R powder-coated steel enclosure, PulseTrek protects internal inverters and electronics against blowing dust, torrential rain, and rough terrain.
- Wide Thermal Tolerance: The discharge system operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C up to 50°C, ensuring dependable output during summer field work or freezing winter operations.
- On-Board Fleet Electrification: The Performance Model includes a native 32-amp Level 2 EV charging station with a 25-foot cable, letting you recharge electric service trucks and utility vehicles right at the remote site.
- Smart Touchscreen Interface: Monitor system load, runtime, and battery capacity in real time through the integrated HMI touchscreen or remote monitoring system.
Why Contractors Are Transitioning to PulseTrek
- Zero Site Emissions: Comply effortlessly with stringent environmental guidelines and LEED job-site mandates without expensive particulate filters.
- Noise-Sensitive Work: Operate around the clock near residential areas, wildlife habitats, or sound-sensitive field production shoots without noise ordinance violations.
- Drastically Lower TCO: Eliminate diesel fuel bills, oil changes, engine overhauls, and downtime.
- Domestic Tax Incentive Eligibility: PulseTrek’s Texas-based, FEOC-compliant manufacturing makes eligible systems qualify for up to 40% in federal clean energy tax credits and rebates.
Power On Demand, Zero Emissions
PulseTrek eliminates the logistical headache, noise, and fumes of job-site generators while matching the power and mobility demanding projects require. By deploying high-capacity LFP energy storage on a road-ready trailer, teams can plug in and get straight to work.
