I have a portable solar PV power plant & a power generating water treatment unit. Please feel free to click on this link http://www.roninsolar.com/RoninSolar/21st_century_solar/Entries/2010/6/6_Empower_units.html
You could build a frame on a couple of pallets to mount some solar panels as I have done. Not as portable as a trailer, but it could be mounted on a trailer.
I have a camper/RV equipped with 90W of solar panels. I carry them in the van and set whenever I need them.
If you have a lot of free time you can be a “human solar tracker”. ;) But first question you need to ask yourself is what do you need this solar power for?
To spend some quality free time off-grid? Then buy a RV/camper, install batteries, charge controller and inverter and then install the solar PV panels.
Thanks for all the info. I’ll let y’all know how it turns out.
