Powerbox Solar Pack allows the operation of the charging station without the need to connect to the grid. It is installed on the wall or roof of the building, together with the charging station placed on the wall or on a pole near the building.
The use of the Solar Pack – an island solution – is only recommended where there is no possibility of connecting to the regular electricity grid, or where such a connection would be costly or technically complicated. The solar system requires winter maintenance by the owner of the charging station and the cost of its purchase will not be recovered by the operator (in case of easy connection to the 240V grid), due to the very low current consumption for charging electric bikes.
For island operation we recommend the Powerbox.one 4P charging station, which allows charging up to 4 e-bikes simultaneously. The photo shows an example of charging using the Powerbox 4P with 2x UNI, 1x Bosch, 1x Shimano.

The SolarPack with south or southwest facing panel with recommended inclination provides sufficient energy to charge up to 8-14 e-bikes per day (approx. 3000 Wh) from April to October, even in inclement weather, thanks to the type of solar panel used and the high battery capacity.
