With the launch of our new range of automotive-grade solar modules, we offer a scalable solution for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and fleet operators. Whether for coaches, refrigerated transport or public transport – our modules are available in a wide variety of sizes, designed for use across Europe and built to withstand even the toughest conditions. In this way, we work together to reduce your total cost of ownership (TCO) and significantly improve your fleets’ carbon footprint. We are confident in our modules and therefore offer you a 5-year warranty instead of the industry-standard 2 years.
We know what we’re talking about – we’ve been developing solar technology for use in vehicles for 10 years. We’ve tested every detail against the harsh conditions of road traffic:
Automotive durability: Maximum resistance to vibration and weathering, validated under real-world conditions.
Intelligent shading management: Special cell design to guarantee high yields, even with dynamic shading whilst driving or in difficult lighting conditions.
Safety-first architecture: Operation in the low-voltage range eliminates safety risks, simplifies installation and ensures full compliance with vehicle homologations.
Scalable performance: Seamless integration of solar modules on almost all vehicle roofs – from 70 W to 500 W, optimised for maximum energy yield per square metre.
Our solar panels for vehicle use are available in eight different standard sizes (70 W – 500 W) and are suitable for roof mounting on a wide variety of vehicle types. Our solar kits are our all-in-one solution for standard vehicle types, from lorries to city buses.
As your development partner, we make every roof surface usable. We tailor solar modules to your requirements in terms of size, electrical specifications and design. Quickly and easily.
All our solar modules are tested for use in vehicles and are perfectly matched to our in-house solar charge controllers, ensuring maximum performance even in partial shade.

Reliability is non-negotiable in the automotive world. Our solar modules undergo one of the most comprehensive qualification processes in the industry. In doing so, we combine traditional PV standards with the extreme demands of the automotive industry.
A solar panel is only as good as the system behind it. Our panels are perfectly matched to our in-house Sono Solar charge controllers. The result: maximum system efficiency, longer battery life and full transparency thanks to our solar data platform.
