Solar-in-a-Suitcase for the U.S. Marines
When it comes to portability, the U.S. Marines have gone a step further than the Air Force. They have developed a solar array that folds into a suitcase for ease of transportation, called the Ground Renewable Expeditionary ENergy System — GREENS, of course. The system consists of stackable solar arrays combined with rechargeable batteries, and with a steady output of 300 watts it can replace the small field generators currently in use.
