Scene 1
The EV Cowboy rides in.
He rolls into town with a charger, a battery dream, and one question: “Who is going to power this future?”
Solar Chicken episode
High Noon at High Voltage
Solar Chicken faces the EV Cowboy in a dusty showdown over solar panels, batteries, EV charging, and the electric bill that keeps riding into town.
Episode script
The showdown begins.
A good Solar Chicken episode should move fast: one villain, one joke, one practical message, and one clear call to action.
Scene 2
The bill shows its teeth.
Peak rates, demand charges, outage fear — the power company villain never misses a duel.
Scene 3
Solar Chicken clucks back.
“When your ’lectric bill is giving you a lickin’… just call for Solar Chicken!”
Scene 4
The roof takes the sun.
Solar panels make power where the customer already owns the space: the roof.
Scene 5
The town remembers the chorus.
The EV Cowboy tips his hat. Solar Chicken points to the sign. The answer is solar, batteries, and a call to ABC Solar.
The practical meaning
EV charging changes the solar conversation.
Once electric vehicles enter the picture, the power system matters more. A home, business, restaurant, ranch, or commercial site may need more than panels alone. It may need solar production, battery storage, load planning, and smart charging.
That is why the EV Cowboy belongs in the Solar Chicken universe. He represents the future load. Solar Chicken represents the memorable call to action.
- Solar panels create useful daytime power.
- Batteries help shift and hold that power.
- EV chargers add a major electric load.
- Good design keeps the system practical.
The showdown question
Are you going to buy more expensive grid power forever, or use your roof, your sun, and your property to make more of your own?
Solar + battery + charging
The future is not one device. It is a system.
A solar-only system can reduce energy purchases. A battery-backed system can protect critical loads and help manage when energy is used. EV charging adds a new reason to think bigger and smarter.
High Noon at High Voltage turns that technical point into a story: the cowboy brings the electric vehicle, the chicken brings the solar anthem, and ABC Solar brings the design discipline.
“The EV Cowboy brought the charger. Solar Chicken brought the chorus.”

Episode lessons
What visitors should remember.
This episode exists to make one point stick: solar, batteries, and EV charging should be planned together.
Solar makes power
The roof can become a working energy asset instead of empty hot space.
Batteries hold power
Storage helps with backup, timing, resilience, and better use of solar production.
EVs need power
Charging can become one of the largest electrical loads on a property.
Design matters
The best systems are planned around real loads, real rates, and real customer goals.
Keep the song alive
Even in the EV episode, the anthem stays front and center.
The Solar Chicken Song should appear across the site because it is the memory hook. Every episode should eventually return to the chorus.
When you find your sun is steady,
When your roof is new and ready,
When your ’lectric bill is giving you a lickin’…
Just call for Solar Chicken!
