Solar PV Power Systems For Motorhomes & Campervans

Modern motorhome, camper-van and self-converted vehicle owners are increasingly using Solar PV Panels mounted on roofs to keep their Solar Energy Storages charged.

Solar powered charging enables the use of lighting, refrigeration, laptops and entertainment equipment miles away from the nearest mains connection. For many motorhome owners, true freedom is not being ‘tied’ to a power cable.

Our Flexible Solar PV Panels are glued directly on any curve surface to avoid roof penetrations.

The power from the Solar PV Panels normally feeds into a Solar Energy Storage. A Solar PV Controller is used between the Solar PV Panels and the Solar Energy Storage to prevent overcharging.

The number and size of the Solar PV Panels to fit to a motorhome is often more dependent on the available installation space and budget, than on daily energy use. Most owners are simply looking to get as much charge as possible into the Solar Energy Storage.

Our Green Energy Storages can be customised to fit most motorhomes and are safe and HIGHLY EFFICIENT for modern mobile living.

There are quite often easy ways to save energy in a motorhome or caravan and this is the key to a well designed power system. High efficiency electrical devices or appliances can dramatically reduce the number of Solar Energy Storage and Solar PV Panels required.

Energy Tips

We suggest replacing any inefficient halogen lights with 12V CCFL. Also consider the use of 12V PIR sensors to automate certain lights, minimising running times.
