This invention is a combination washer and dryer powered by solar energy. The solar energy unit collects solar energy and converts it into electrical energy which is stored in an energy storage device. The solar energy unit connects to the main enclosure to power the electronic control circuits and the motor in the main enclosure. Within the main enclosure is a second energy storage device. The main enclosure also comprises a receptacle for liquid, detergent, and the clothing bin. The clothing bin is rotated or agitated by a motor according to instructions provided by the electronic control circuit and powered by either the solar panel directly or by one of the two energy storage devices.
