The Russian Ministry of Defense spoke about the work on creating small individual and large power banks for the military in the field. They will be useful for charging batteries of various types and kinds, structurally integrated into engineering weapons through chargers.
The mobile design of special solar batteries, including those included in the kits, makes it easy to move them from place to place and provide electricity to the borders and positions of troop concentration. The installation of solar panels is possible at various angles, which makes it possible to generate electrical energy for a long time. After the energy sources are accepted for supply, their purchase is planned as part of the state defense order and delivery to the military units of the engineering troops.
It is assumed that they will be put on the balance sheet in military units throughout the country - solar power banks are designed to operate at temperatures from -20 °C to + 50 °C.

From Russian similar charging solutions on solar energy, one can note the EPS-120P portable power plants from NPO Solaris. It is known that such devices on lithium-ion batteries were actively purchased by the National Guard in 2016 for its special forces.
The maximum charge of its battery reached 21000 mAh, and the weight together with the charging panels and adapters did not exceed 16 kg. The solar battery was divided into elements that could be laid out in pouches.
There is also information in the public domain about another mobile engineering solution that the military can use. This is the Skif series of portable power stations of various capacities from Eon.
The weight of the "Skifs" varies from 9 to 23 kg, the capacity - from 50 Ah to 200.0 Ah, the maximum load - from 150 W to 400 W.
Now on home
The project is implemented jointly with Roscosmos
Cosmonauts on board the station will be able to control the robot in outer space using an exoskeleton
Analysts: "Perhaps the drone doesn't need mass production"
Zorkiy-2M Devices Have Passed Testing
Russians are required to report on cryptocurrency transactions and holdings
The power plant successfully passed an extreme test to maintain cascade systems
The oldest element of the station will operate in space for more than 30 years
The trend has affected the 2025 and 2026 models
The new Russian complex automatically targets the target, but the operator pulls the trigger
The devices are already in use in Russia and Kazakhstan, and will soon be delivered to the Republic of Belarus
Separating compression and combustion made it possible to reduce pressure and simplify the engine design
The project may pay off in 5-10 years
