The device of claim 1 wherein the light is selected from the group consisting of one or more floodlights and one or more light emitting diode floodlights. 10. A solar powered battery operated portable light tower, comprising: a. a frame of a trailer;b. a first enclosure supported by the frame, the enclosure including one or more batteries;c. a second enclosure containing controls;d. an extension tower including a set of light emitting diode floodlights;e. a cable winch and pulley system to extend and contract the tower;f. a first solar panel;g. a second solar panel;h. a first rotatable back plate; andi. a second rotatable back plate, wherein the first solar panel remains substantially in contact with the first rotatable back plate, and the second solar panel remains substantially in contact with the second rotatable back plate while in an open position and a closed position, wherein the first solar panel and the second solar panel face inward toward the trailer when positioned in the closed position, further wherein the first solar panel and the second solar panel are positioned in a vertical orientation when positioned in the closed position, wherein the first solar panel and the second solar panel fold out over fenders of the trailer. 11. The light tower of claim 10 wherein the controls comprise a control panel for controlling the set of light emitting diode floodlights and the first solar panel and the second solar panel. 12. The light tower of claim 10 wherein the tower comprises a pivotable, telescoping tower coupling the floodlights to the frame, wherein the telescoping tower is extendable and pivotable between a down position to an up position. 13. The light tower of claim 10 wherein the first solar panel and the second solar panel are each rotatable to the open position to acquire the solar energy and the closed position to protect the solar panels. 14. A method of utilizing a portable solar light tower comprising: a. configuring a portable solar light tower on a trailer in a transport mode including placing a first solar panel and a second solar panel in a protected position by rotating the first solar panel and the second solar panel from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position with the first solar panel and the second solar panel each facing inward toward the trailer, with a back plate covering each of the first solar panel and the second solar panel wherein each back plate is separate from the first solar panel and the second solar panel, wherein the first solar panel and the second solar panel fold out over fenders of the trailer;b. transporting the portable solar light tower;c. configuring the portable solar light tower in a charge mode including placing the first solar panel and the second solar panel in a position to receive sunlight and lowering an extension tower and lights to a down position;d. charging a battery using the first solar panel and the second solar panel of the portable solar light tower;e. configuring the portable solar light tower in a light mode including raising the extension tower into a substantially upright position and placing the first solar panel and the second solar panel in the protected position by rotating the first solar panel and the second solar panel in the substantially vertical position with the back plate covering each of the first solar panel and the second solar panel; andf. lighting an area. 15. The method of claim 14 wherein configuring the portable solar light tower in the transport mode includes placing the extension tower in a down position. 16. The method of claim 14 wherein transporting includes trailering the portable solar light tower. 17. A system for illuminating an area at night using a renewable energy source comprising: a. an energy acquisition component for acquiring energy from the renewable energy resource, wherein the energy acquisition component comprises a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side, a left side and a right side;b. a protective component including a backplate rotatable from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position for protecting the energy acquisition component, wherein the backplate is coupled to a trailer, wherein the energy acquisition component faces inward toward the trailer when in the substantially vertical position, wherein the energy acquisition component folds out over a fender of the trailer, wherein the protective component covers the back side, the top side, the bottom side, the left side and the right side of the energy acquisition component, wherein the protective component is separate from the energy acquisition component;c. a lighting component for illuminating the area; andd. a raising component for raising the lighting component. 18.
