Customized Solar Power
SolarDrive's team of experts is prepared for unusual
challenges. For the world famous ice cream
company, Ben & Jerry's, we have tailored an 810 Watt solar roof
for their sales trailer. In addition we have rebuilt used electric
Club Cars to carry energy efficient freezers, all powered by solar
roofs.
Ben & Jerry's are highly conscientious at the
company's social and environmental responsibility. Read more on http://www.benjerry.com
The trailer is equipped with 9 solar panels at
90 Watt each. When the trailer has been safely parked,
the roof is easily adjusted by remote up to 45 degrees
both ways in order to optimize power
production. During road transport the roof will
be locked horizontally to the trailer. The total nominal power of
810 Watt is handled and controlled by an MPPT at 24 V and either
directly transmitted to a 230 V inverter for instant powering of
the two large ice cream freezers inside the trailer or transmitted
to the battery pack under the trailer for later
use.
At a festival in Denmark the trailer was very
popular:
The rebuilt Club Cars have been equipped with a 180 W
solar roof, a smaller but still very efficient freezer and 2
outlets for 230 V. One for the freezer and one for other
applications.
Solar power solutions like these can be customized
for several kinds of utility and catering
vehicles.
