This stored energy powers the tractor motor and various equipment, including lights.
One of the primary challenges lies in the limited power supply generated by solar panels. Consequently, solar-powered tractors might not match the sheer power of fuel-based counterparts. However, they offer numerous benefits for farmers, such as reducing reliance on fuels like diesel, maintaining a low environmental impact by eliminating emissions, and facilitating work in remote areas lacking electricity.
Solar-powered tractors boast extended operational periods compared to traditional diesel ones, boosting productivity. With fewer moving parts than their diesel counterparts, they incur lower maintenance costs and boast a longer lifespan, saving both time and maintenance expenses.
