Solar panel engine block heater.
Seriously though you d need a very large solar array to generate the 1 500 watts required to run a block heater.
Order engine heater block universal for your vehicle and pick it up in store make your purchase find a store near you and get directions.

Unit is powered using only one solar panel.
The block heaters i used on car v8s were probably a lot more efficient than the 1 5kw external heaters that circulated the coolant.
Hypothesis we can convert the conventional energy being used with the engine block heaters to a solar powered engine block heater.
The 500w in block needed more time which at some temp probably cancels their efficiency.
Question is there a way to convert energy being used by the engine block heaters to a more efficient and renewable source of energy.

But the 1 5kw turned on an hour or so before start were enough to guarantee a start.
The biggest problem with a diesel in winter is just pure cranking power also with adding a trickle charge from the solar panel you will also slightly warm the batteries so they will perform better 2 fold.
