What Is the EcoWatch Rapid Deployment System?

Eco Watch CCTV

The EcoWatch Rapid Deployment System is Copeland’s innovative, solar-powered CCTV solution designed for sites that need fast, flexible and environmentally responsible security. Built for both temporary and long-term use, it combines advanced monitoring technology with sustainable power, providing protection wherever it is needed, even in remote or off-grid locations.

A fast, green and flexible security solution

Traditional CCTV often requires fixed power sources and extensive installation. EcoWatch changes that. The system is entirely self-contained, running on solar energy with internal battery storage. This means it can be deployed quickly, without mains power or cabling, and repositioned easily as site layouts evolve.

EcoWatch is ideal for locations where permanent infrastructure is not practical, such as:

  • Construction and demolition sites
  • Remote or rural properties
  • Utilities and infrastructure projects
  • Farms, estates and renewable energy sites
  • Short-term events or seasonal operations

Each unit provides high-quality surveillance and can be installed in a matter of hours.

Sustainable technology with powerful performance

EcoWatch operates entirely on renewable energy, using solar panels to power advanced CCTV cameras and communication systems. This removes the need for generators or grid connections and reduces both costs and emissions.

The system’s cameras capture clear, detailed footage day and night, while onboard sensors detect motion and send alerts to Copeland’s 24-hour UK-based control room. Operators can access live feeds, verify incidents, and coordinate an appropriate response in real time.

Monitored by Copeland’s control room

EcoWatch units link directly to Copeland’s in-house control room, staffed around the clock by experienced operators. This ensures every alert is reviewed by real people who understand the client’s site and can contact emergency services or mobile patrol teams if required.

This direct connection means clients benefit from:

  • 24-hour monitoring by a UK-based team
  • Rapid response coordination
  • Detailed reporting and evidence capture
  • Secure data handling and storage

Designed for ease of deployment

The EcoWatch system can be set up quickly with minimal disruption. Because it does not rely on mains power or broadband, it can operate in almost any environment. When a project ends or a site layout changes, the tower can be relocated within hours, offering total flexibility.

A blended approach to security

EcoWatch can be used as a standalone system or as part of a wider, integrated security solution. When combined with Copeland’s manned guarding, mobile patrols, lock and unlock services or keyholding and alarm response, it provides complete protection for businesses of any size.
