Charging Heavy-Duty Aftermarket Vehicles with Flexible Solar Modules by SolarPaint by Apollo Power

Apollo Power’s flexible solar modules are an innovative solution to the challenge of operating heavy commercial vehicles in an environmentally-friendly and efficient manner. The durable and lightweight modules use solar energy to reduce CO2 emissions, fuel and energy costs and protect vehicle batteries from discharging. This will help to achieve the targets for zero-emission vehicles. With this simple system integration, in which the solar solution is connected directly to the vehicle batteries and supplies various electrical consumers, the average payback period is just one year. The efficiency and profitability of the solar solution have been proven in field tests, where it achieved fuel savings of up to 10 %. Customers include public transport companies, logistics companies and fleet operators. The robust SolarPaint modules are able to withstand extreme weather and road conditions and maintain a high level of efficiency over the long term. In addition to the energy and cost savings, the integrated Battery Guard functionality offers effective protection against battery discharge, especially when a vehicles is not being driven. This boosts the reliability and operational readiness of vehicles.
