A solar generator is a compact, portable power station that captures the sun&apos;s energy through solar panels, stores it in a high-capacity battery, and converts it into electrical power.Unlike a conventional generator, a solar-powered generator operates silently, produces no emissions, and requires only sunlight for fuel.&#xA0;This makes them excellent companions for off-grid adventures, emergency backup power, and everyday use where clean energy is preferred.

The process starts with solar panels converting sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. This electricity is stored in a built-in battery as a portable power station - typically lithium for its efficiency and longevity.The power station converts the stored DC energy into alternating current (AC), making it usable for various devices and appliances.&#xA0;
