Solar Powered Multipurpose Canopy

Solar Powered Multipurpose Canopy is an umbrella-type canopy that has the provision of giving 5 volts, 3 amps of DC power. Chitkara University NewGen IEDC has developed a solar-powered umbrella-type canopy that is ideal for use in places like Gate Security Posts, Outdoor Police Posts, Outdoor Events, Outdoor Eateries etc. The canopy is powered by a 10-watt solar panel that drives a 12-volt battery and a solar charge controller to convert solar energy into DC power. Two independent USB ports have been provided that deliver 5V, 3A power sufficient for charging a smartphone, running a DC fan on a hot summer day, and lighting an LED light during the night if required. A heavy-duty metal base has been made so that the structure remains standalone and doesn’t topple in windy conditions. Dedicated efforts have been made in the design of the complete structure so that it is easy to dismantle (for transportation) and looks neat and elegant.
