Solar Powered

Electric Outdoors has created an entirely off-grid solution that requires zero infrastructure and makes unlimited power and water. As far as we know, there's nothing else like it on the market.

House W is a family home that takes the form of a barn split into two areas and joined by glazing. Its energy efficient design, which includes solar panels, allows it to generate almost twice as much power as it requires annually.

Boxabl's latest tiny home creation, the Baby Box, is an ultra-compact, foldable tiny home. It's designed to be so easy and simple to construct that one person, without any tools, can set it up and start living the tiny life. And it's cheap.

As the production window approaches for what's described as "the world’s most efficient EV pickup," startup Telo has formed a partnership with Aptera. The latter will supply its PV cells for optional solar paneling for the upcoming compact e-truck.

San Diego's storied e-mobility startup Aptera is driving into CES 2025 for the first public showing of its production-intent solar electric vehicle, which has just been aero tweaked with help from Pininfarina.

While many EVs use solar panels to boost their range, those panels often don't look like they'd make a big difference. Such is not the case with the Lightfoot scooter, which is covered with panels that provide up to 18 miles of extra range per day.

The Arkup 50 is a futuristic floating home that can rise above the waves using motorized supports. Packed with technology, including solar panels and a Skylink internet system, pricing starts at $900,000.

Though ebike battery fires are relatively rare, they can cause serious damage to property and riders alike. Beam Global is looking to take charging outdoors with a 12-ebike, grid-independent charging hub that's powered by solar and batteries.

If you want to get high-speed internet to people in remote communities, why not beam it to them from a high-flying blimp-like aircraft? That's just one of the proposed purposes of the Sceye HAPS, which uses solar power to hover in the stratosphere.

Love concrete? If so, you'll find a lot to like with the Shire, by Atelier Matias Mosquera. Designed to blend into its lush surrounding landscape, the extraordinary home offers self-sufficiency in power, water and food.

Star Catcher Industries has secured US$12.25 million in seed funding for its ambitious plan to build the first “space-based energy grid.” A network of satellites would gather and concentrate solar energy and beam it to other satellites in orbit.

Urb is on a mission to remake Dubai's landscape into a lush paradise. Its Green Spine project envisions transforming a major highway in the region with park areas, farms, pathways, and the planting of over 1 million trees.
