A solar blanket, also known as a solar mat or portable solar panel, is a flexible and foldable device designed to harness sunlight and convert it into usable electricity. Just like a regular blanket provides warmth, a solar blanket provides a source of renewable energy. These portable solar solutions are often lightweight and easy to carry, making them ideal for outdoor activities, camping trips, and emergency situations. Solar blankets consist of photovoltaic cells that capture sunlight and convert it into electrical energy. This energy can be used to charge batteries, power electronic devices, or even provide electricity to remote locations where traditional power sources are unavailable. Solar blankets are versatile and can be easily unfolded and positioned to capture optimal sunlight angles. They offer a convenient way to generate power while on the go or in places with limited infrastructure. A solar panel, sometimes referred to as a photovoltaic panel, is a more permanent installation that consists of multiple solar cells connected in an organised array. Solar panels work by allowing sunlight to strike the solar cells, which are typically made of semiconductor materials. These cells absorb photons from the sunlight, generating a flow of electricity known as direct current (DC).
