Extra cold storage without construction or high power demand
Cold storage pressure often arrives with little warning. Your fixed cold room fills up. A seasonal peak lands early. Or site power is already under pressure.
ArcticStore Horizon gives you a faster way to add capacity than a permanent build-out (and the financial drain that goes with it). You rent these portable cold storage units for as long as you need them, then scale back if/when demand changes.
Part of TITAN’s wide range of refrigerated container rentals, Arcticstore Horizon uses solar power to help reduce power draw from the grid.
You’ll still need a connection to a mains supply, but you’ll enjoy reliable extra cold storage with lower energy use than a standard reefer. Fully off-grid cold storage is still a few years away.
Horizon is a strong fit when:
- Power costs matter
- Your electrical supply is limited
- Your team wants a lower-energy cold storage option
Every client is different, so we’ll confirm the right power setup – and positioning – for your site before rental starts.

A solar-powered reefer for clients across the US and Canada
ArcticStore Horizon combines enhanced insulation with solar panels to reduce energy use and operating costs.
Available in 20ft and 40ft sizes, it can be delivered nationwide and is quick to get up and running. Use the 20ft option for focused overflow or smaller site layouts. Choose a 40ft Horizon when you need more volume in a single unit.
Or mix and match. There is no limit to the number you rent or how you set them up. We’ll share some tips when you order.
Compared with standard reefers, Horizon is designed to deliver significant energy savings, offering an average 55% energy reduction over traditional refrigerated containers.
Actual savings depend on your site, stock, power setup, door openings and temperature needs. Sunlight, of course, plays a part when renting a solar-powered refrigerated container, too.
If you’re comparing a solar-powered refrigerated container with a standard reefer, Horizon is the product to start with. Our experts will help you check whether solar-assisted rental is the right fit for you.

Where solar-powered cold storage works best
Seasonal harvest peaks and produce handling
Farms, packers and produce businesses often need extra cold space for a specific period. Horizon works well for harvest peaks, where lower energy use reduces production costs. Our agriculture cold storage page has more details about how the ArcticStore collection suits this sector.
Food and beverage overflow
Promotions, events, catering demand and distribution peaks can quickly fill fixed cold rooms. Horizon gives food and beverage teams extra rental capacity without committing to a permanent build. Explore our food and beverage cold storage page for more details about TITAN’s expertise in this sector.
Breakdowns, refits and planned shutdowns
If your existing refrigeration is offline, stock still needs to be stored safely. A solar-assisted reefer can cover the gap while repairs, upgrades or site work is completed.
Long-Term overflow at logistics and distribution sites
Some operations need extra cold space for months, not days. Horizon suits sites where refrigerated storage demand is ongoing, and energy use plays a part in the buying decision.
Bio and life sciences overflow
Temperature-sensitive goods need careful handling when fixed capacity is full. We’ll help you rent the right setup so nothing gets wasted.
Environmentally focused business operations
If you’re under pressure to reduce your carbon footprint or meet sustainability goals, Horizon can help. Improve sustainability without risking your cold chain.
Planning your solar cold room delivery
A successful rental starts with a solid site plan. The following tips from TITAN’s cold storage experts will help make delivery, access and daily use smoother.
- Choose level, stable ground. Your rental unit needs a suitable surface for safe placement and normal operations.
- Keep access clear. Plan truck access for delivery, then check staff, forklift and pallet routes for daily use.
- Use the sun well. Solar cold storage containers need sunlight! We’ll help you find the perfect spot.
- Confirm site power early. Solar panels reduce grid power use, but a suitable power connection still needs to be planned.
- Plan stock flow. Organize loading and picking so doors stay open for less time during busy periods.
Our delivery and placement planning information will help you get everything ready before your unit arrives.
