The world of solar power is continuously evolving. One subset of solar power technologies that has garnered much attention is portable solar panels. Nowadays, you can find several varieties of portable solar panels that can help people stay powered even on the go. Recently, a solar design startup called Levante introduced an origami-inspired solar panel that has taken the market by storm. In this blog post, we'll dive deep into Levante's solar panel design, its features, and possible applications.
The Origami Design Levante's solar panel design is a "breakthrough" regarding versatility and portability. The design is inspired by the Japanese art of paper folding, "origami." Maybe not a breakthrough, given that Sego also uses this concept with the smaller solar panels I wrote about in an earlier article. Jinko Panel Solar
Like the Sego, the Levante panels fold in and out but in a delicate wing-like movement, powered by a set of micro-hinges integrated into the design. It's also important to point out the size of the Levante panels, with the panels maxing out at 330W and 500W, respectively. The overall design and mechanism of the panels look very clean and sleek and have an aesthetic appeal. These panels are also modular, meaning additional modules can be attached to boost the power grab.
Redefining Portability Levante's solar panels are touted to be some of the most portable solar panels ever made. They can be packed down to a fraction of their total surface area, a significant advantage for anyone traveling with them. The panels are lightweight and made of ultra-thin film technology known to be bend-resistant.
