Electric campers: European study suggests solution to range anxiety
Original source: Autobahn

A European study, involving the Dutch SolarMoves project (TNO, Lightyear), found that integrated solar panels (VIPV) can significantly reduce charging stress for electric campers. A test on a Ford E-Transit in summer yielded about 10 km of extra range per day from solar power, while large trailers could gain up to 50 km daily. However, the report notes VIPV is not a replacement for charging infrastructure but a supplement, especially in sunny regions.
