Technical FAQs 4

What is a solar panels on shipping container?

It not only transports the PV equipment, but can also be deployed on site. It is based on a 10 - 40 foot shipping container. Efficient hydraulics help get the solar panels ready quickly. Due to its construction, our solar panels on shipping container offers unmatched flexibility and maneuverability.

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 solar panels be attached to a roof?

One common concern with solar panels attached to roofs is their tendency to heat up, and potentially degrade the roof. This is usually dealt with by acquiring extra HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) equipment to regulate temperatures.

Why should you choose LZY solar panels on shipping container?
