Eco-dynamic Solar Awnings Make It Easy For RVs To Capture More Sunshine - CleanTechnica

Eco-dynamic has developed innovative solar awnings for RVs that integrate flexible, roll-up solar panels into traditional motorized awnings. These awnings provide shade and generate electricity simultaneously, with customizable widths achieved by adding more solar panel segments. At the RE+ event, Eco-dynamic showcased an awning featuring three integrated panels producing 800-900 watts under ideal conditions. The awnings include motorized deployment and integrated LED lighting, enhancing convenience for RV users while charging auxiliary house batteries. The flexible solar panels, Eco-dynamic’s core technology, come in various sizes—from portable 40-watt roll-up panels for camping to larger 300-watt panels used in awnings. While primarily designed to charge house batteries, these solar awnings are not currently suitable for directly charging electric vehicle traction batteries due to the absence of a DC-to-DC MPPT charger. However, the company envisions future applications where solar awnings could contribute power directly to electric RV traction batteries. Eco-dynamic sells
