Turns out they actually give just 50 epower for regular panels 100 for upgraded and 300 for quantum.
Cataclysm solar panel not charging.
So if your solar panel on the ambulance is charging a non draining battery it will operate the charging station without the need to run the engine.

It takes around 12 solar panels on a car to make it charge at a noticeable rate and at least 4 to outpace even a minifridge s passive draw.
If you pop out every evening and disconnect the panel from the battery before dark you could even skip the diode.
Nothing more needed except to turn on the charging station by operating the electronics and drop your rechargeable batteries into the basket.

Solar panels are incredibly slow to charge.
You should measure the current from the panel to the battery.
Solar panels don t charge during thunder or rainstorms.
The wiki states that normal solar panels give 111 epower.
At this rate you d have to leave a car charging for days in good weather if you want to go any kind of long distance.
You will at least get some charging from the panel.
Electric cars early on are almost difficult to use because when you drive from one town to another it ll take several days for the power to come back.
