Technical FAQs 4

What is a solar energy container?

Comprising solar panels, batteries, inverters, and monitoring systems, these containers offer a self-sustaining power solution. Solar Panels: The foundation of solar energy containers, these panels utilize photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into electricity. Their size and number vary depending on energy requirements and sunlight availability.

Can you put solar panels on a container?

We put solar panels on a container for a guy who was powering an RV on his land. He had a generator, and the container was full of batteries to support himself. When we’re on top of a container, we need to build a custom racking system to hold up more than one row of panels, which what we ended up doing for him. (See in image with tan container.)

Can a solar array be used inside a container?

Solar arrays inside of a container are applicable in a number of ways. Constant improvements in PV technology make it a great, future-proof solution. Below you can find just a few examples of the possible applications. The abundance of sunlight in the deserts makes solar-powered systems the most obvious choice in these areas.

Can a mobile solar container run a petroleum company?

Once deployed, runs indefinitely without the need to supply fuel. Petroleum companies often operate in distant locations with limited access to grid power. This is where a mobile solar containers can act as an additional power source to run the equipment.
