Abstract: An apparatus for portable power generation comprises an intermodal container having a front bracket and a top bracket secured to a top thereof. At least one front solar panel assembly is hinged to the top bracket, wherein the at least one front solar panel assembly is pivotable between a stored position proximate to and substantially parallel to the front of the intermodal container and an extended position angularly rotated upward about the top bracket to an angle relative to the front of the intermodal container and at least one top solar panel assembly hinged to the top bracket wherein the at least one top solar panel assembly is pivotable between a stored position proximate to and substantially parallel to the top of the intermodal container and an extended position angularly rotated upward about the top bracket to an angle relative to the top of the intermodal container.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for portable power generation comprises an intermodal container having a front, a rear, a top and a bottom and extending between first and second ends, the intermodal container having a front and a rear corner post extending between the top and the bottom at each of the first and second ends. The apparatus further comprises a door hingedly secured to each of the front corner posts and at least one solar panel hinged to a top edge of the door, wherein the door is operable to pivot between a closed position extending between the front and the rear of the intermodal container, and an open position extending in planar alignment with the front of the intermodal container.

Abstract: A modular solar panel roof system comprising a plurality of interconnected square-shaped modular tiles. Each modular tile comprises a circular AC solar cell on an outward facing surface of the modular tile and a housing with an outward facing surface designed to support the weight of a human without breaking. Contours located on at least two sides of the modular tile are designed to mate with identical contours on an adjacent modular tile so as to define a water tight seal between the modular tiles. Electrical terminals located on at least two sides of the modular tile are conductively coupled with the AC solar cell in the modular tile. The electrical terminals are designed to mate with identical electrical terminals on an adjacent modular tile.
