  • Patent number: 9157418
    Abstract: A sustainable power supply unit for ISO containers that includes photo voltaic solar panels that produce electric power allowing standardized mounting and attachment on top of ISO containers. The power supply unit can include ISO container corner castings that allow two or more sustainable power supply units to be stacked during transportation and storage. The power supply unit can include a maximum power point tracker, electrical batteries, data handling equipment and an inverter for supplying plug and play electric power to an ISO container or other electricity demanding equipment.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8419118
    Abstract: A canopy for electric vehicles is composed of extruded profiles containing shelves for placement of photovoltaic panels, inside ceiling, integrated gutter and curtain slides, and a special universal rail system which allows the canopy to be mounted on vehicles of different brands with different horizontal distances between the uprights supporting the canopy of this type of vehicles, where the design of the profiles, linking them together, a ceiling with inlaid metal lattice, together with photovoltaic panels and the uprights also offers a more effective protection against the harmful effects of lightning than the known types of canopies, and a special control box is utilized that allows photovoltaic panels to be connected in parallel which reduces the harmful effects of shade on the panels and maximises the energy that may be transferred to different and higher battery voltages.
