Abstract

GismoPower’s patented Mobile Electricity Generating Appliance (MEGA) is a new solar deployment method turning photovoltaics into a mobile appliance, making solar not only more affordable to the general public, but also more accessible. Several different prototypes and renditions of the MEGA were created in order to optimize the design for manufacturing, durability, and ease of assembly. This thesis analyzes the electricity generation of the first prototype (2020) and the most recent prototype (2023).
