Roll-Out Solar Panel Installation

Solar panels mounted on your fleet vehicles to help keep batteries charged, so trackers stay online and liftgates and accessories are ready when you need them.

Why fleets add solar

Fewer dead batteries, fewer dark trackers

Telematics devices, cameras, liftgates, and other accessories draw power even when a vehicle or trailer is parked. Over days, that drain can leave a battery too low to start, run a liftgate, or keep a tracker reporting. Then it drops off your map.

Low-profile vehicle-mounted solar panels feed a small, steady charge back to the battery. We install them as part of your rollout, wired through a charge controller to the battery you want to support.

  • Roof checked and prepped before mounting
  • Panels placed clear of vents, units, and ladders
  • Bonded or fastened the way the maker specifies
  • Sealed cable entry and protected wiring
  • Charging confirmed before sign-off

Common uses

How a solar install goes

Inspect

Check the roof surface and decide where the panel and cable entry go.

Mount

Clean the surface and attach the panel with the maker’s adhesive or hardware.

Wire

Seal the cable entry, mount the charge controller, and make a fused connection to the battery.

Confirm

Check that the panel is charging, then photo and log the install.

What to have ready

Panels and kits

Panels, controllers, cables, and mounting materials from your supplier.

Vehicle details

Which vehicles or trailers, roof type, and which battery each panel should charge.

Safe roof access

A spot where we can work on roofs safely under your site rules, and dry weather for adhesive to set.

Brand-neutral

Your panels, installed right

You or your supplier provide the panels, and we install it to the maker’s instructions. We can install solar on the same visit as your trackers or cameras, so each vehicle is only out of service once.

Fleet solar questions

Will solar keep my battery charged forever?

No. Solar helps offset drain while a vehicle is parked, but output depends on the panel, the weather, and how much power your equipment draws. Ask your panel supplier what to expect for your setup.

Which vehicles can you put solar on?

Trailers and truck bodies with a suitable roof are the most common. Tell us your vehicle types and we’ll confirm what works.

Do you drill holes in the roof?

Many flexible panels bond to the roof with adhesive. The cable still needs a sealed way into the vehicle. We follow the maker’s method and go over it with you first.

Can you install solar during our tracker rollout?

Yes. Doing both on the same visit saves a second round of downtime.
