About RenGO
The importance of mobile energy sources cannot be overestimated. In many fields, e.g. military, scientific or even traveling, there may be no possibility to connect to a stationary electricity system, that is why using a diesel generator is a common way to generate electricity to charge devices and provide heating, ventilation and air conditioning of temporary shelters. RenGO system offers mobile photovoltaic panels coupled with a fuel-fed generator as a reserve energy source.

Benefits
Principal technical scheme
The product is based on three core concepts/ideas/features
Our main goal is to offer an innovative, multi-purpose and user-friendly mobile energy supply solution that uses renewable sun energy for power generation, has a diesel generator for extra reliability, reduces electricity consumption and is silent in operation. In addition, the unit provides heating, heat recuperation and ventilation. additionally unit can be operated and controlled remotely, which excludes unauthorized access, idling and waste of energy.
