Solar Truck
It is our intention to initiate conversations with companies in the freight transportation sector to develop projects together, both for Diesel Vans and Electric Vans.
Sono solar is a one-stop for transforming your vehicles into solar electric vehicles via the combination of our innovate technology and expertise.
We offer a complete solution, and we partner with you from a first-step
prototype, to series production and after-sales service.
- Solar panels
- Power electronics
- Telematics & data service
- Hardware integration
- After-sales service
FOR EXAMPLE:
A full-surface solar integration on the roof and sides of a semi-trailer covers more than 20% of the annual energy requirement for the refrigeration unit.
Refrigerated semi-trailer with a Gross Vehicle Weight of 40 tons.
- Valencia Spain.
- Solar Surface: 60 m² (Roof and Sides).
