Solar Powered Airplane Avionics
Powerenz, a manfacturer and retailer of portable solar power systems in Georgia, has designed a system to help pilots power up their light airplane avionics without having to start the engine. It can power up the aircraft avionics silently, without smoke, and without wasting aircraft fuel. The unit can be used for approximately 90 minutes before the portable battery required recharging. The entire system can be housed in either a heavy-duty tool-carrying case, a military tanker’s tool bag, or in a hard case.

I definitely think that it is a possibility. I mean twenty years ago it was hard to imagine anything being powered by solar power and look where we are today. With technology becoming more and more powerful and efficient at the same time, I think that it is safe to say that solar powered planes are something we might all one day consider to be the norm.
