semi-flexible solar panel on a trailer reefer unit

 

PowerFilm uses high-efficiency SunPower solar cells to better serve permanent and semi-permanent applications where power density, ruggedness, and cost are critical requirements.

Custom shapes and sizes are available, ranging from 20-150 Watts of solar per panel. Panels can be connected in parallel to quickly create 1kW+ portable solar arrays. 

With integrated charge-controllers available, PowerFilm’s semi-flexible crystalline solutions can connect directly to 12V, 24V, and other battery systems.
