Custom Solar Panels
PowerFilm Solar creates custom solar panels using proprietary thin-film and crystalline PV technology. These solutions cater to specialized energy needs across industries like IoT, military, and transportation. Our engineering team works directly with clients to design panels that meet exact power, size, and environmental requirements, ensuring optimal performance in diverse conditions.
Foldable Solar Panels
Foldable solar panels combine lightweight design with durability for outdoor and mobile applications. These panels feature weather-resistant fabric mounting and can be easily transported in backpacks. Ideal for camping, fieldwork, and emergency preparedness, they provide reliable power while maintaining flexibility and ease of deployment in challenging environments.
Rollable Solar Panels
Rollable solar panels offer waterproof, rugged solutions for permanent outdoor installations. With IP67-rated construction, these panels withstand harsh weather conditions while maintaining efficiency. They are commonly used in marine applications, remote monitoring systems, and commercial transportation to provide continuous power for telematics, refrigeration units, and battery maintenance.
Military Solar Systems
Military-grade solar systems provide portable and vehicle-mounted power solutions for defense applications. These panels meet MIL-STD-810G specifications, offering lightweight, durable power for expeditionary forces. Capable of charging communication equipment, vehicle batteries, and field devices, they enhance operational efficiency while reducing reliance on traditional fuel sources.
Commercial Trucking Kits
Commercial trucking solar kits reduce idling and extend battery life for fleet vehicles. These systems offset parasitic loads from telematics and hotel loads during rest periods. By maintaining battery charge levels, they decrease fuel consumption and maintenance costs while improving overall fleet efficiency and sustainability.
