SolarTools Now Runs on Your Own Server with Docker
SolarTools can now be installed on your own server with Docker. The same dashboards, SCADA, alarms and reports — without data leaving the site.
Public bodies, defence companies and factories on closed OT networks do not want to send energy data to the cloud. Now they don't have to. SolarTools runs on your facility's own server as ready-made Docker containers.
On your own server
Physical server, virtual machine or private cloud. The platform runs on your infrastructure.
Data stays on site
Measurements, alarms and reports never leave for the internet. You keep data sovereignty.
Works on closed networks
Browser access over the local network, even on OT networks without internet.
Controlled updates
Container-based setup is repeatable. Upgrades are planned and can be rolled back.
How it works
Get started in three steps
- 1
Survey and server preparation
We define server requirements with you based on facility size.
- 2
Docker deployment
SolarTools containers are installed on your server. Gateways connect to the local server.
- 3
Use on the local network
Your teams open dashboards, SCADA screens and reports in the browser.
Who is it for?
Who benefits most?
Public sector and defence
Organisations whose data must not leave the premises.
Energy generation and distribution
Sites with critical infrastructure security policies.
Factories on closed OT networks
Plants whose production network is isolated.
Sites with unreliable internet
Remote plants, mines and agricultural sites.

FAQ
Common questions
Which plan includes on-premise deployment?
It is offered on the Enterprise plan. Deployment scope and server requirements are defined with our sales team.
Are cloud features available on-premise?
Yes. Dashboards, SCADA screens, alarms and reports come with the same interface.
Is a hybrid setup possible?
Yes. Some sites can run on a local server and others in the cloud. We plan the architecture together.
Cloud or your own server — both are the same SolarTools. You decide where your data lives.
