Solar Panels on Trucks: Save Fuel, Cut Emissions, Protect Your Battery
PACCAR Parts has launched ultra-thin, flexible solar panels designed for truck cabs, trailers, and bodies. These innovative panels help reduce fuel use, lower CO2 emissions, and slow battery degradation — all while keeping power flowing to your cab.
Why Solar Panels on Trucks?
Trucks use a lot of power, even when parked. Accessories like lights, microwaves, or coffee machines drain the battery. With PACCAR Parts solar panels, energy is constantly fed into the system using free sunlight.
Lightweight, Flexible, and Powerful
PACCAR’s panels come in two sizes:
- Small panel: 3 mm thin, 110 x 30 cm, 700 g, 16 cells, delivers 55 Wp
- Large panel: double the size, 1.3 kg, 32 cells, delivers 110 Wp
These self-adhesive panels easily stick to curved roofs or spoilers, and installation is quick. The included converter sends power straight to the battery for instant or stored use.
Designed for All Truck Types
One small and one large panel fit most cab roofs. Many vehicles can install more. Trailers and rigid body trucks with flat roofs can support multiple panels for extra power.
Less Engine Use, More Efficiency
When parked, drivers often run the engine to power accessories. With these solar panels, that’s no longer needed. This means:
✅ Less fuel consumption
✅ Fewer CO2 emissions
✅ Longer dynamo and battery life
The actual return on investment depends on sunlight exposure and cab energy use, but savings start immediately.
Power for Daily Use
165 Wp can supply around 135 watts of real power—enough for a microwave, TV, or coffee machine. It’s clean, quiet, and always available when the sun is shining.
Easy Access Across Europe
These lightweight solar panels are now available at 1,100+ DAF dealers and service locations. Installation and connection are handled on-site for your convenience.
