No reason you could not augment shore power charging with solar...  many options avaliable, from roll up SV panels to complete house systems...

For the current cart rig, supposing a 120 amp hr AGM battery...(110lbs)  It could be done, but I would rather help save the environment by pulling the plug on tha c..p they call "Reality TV"... than carry the extra weight and gear needed to solar charge a battery.

Lots of sites on the web and it seems most are based on charging batteries... then inverting to AC...  then back to DC for most appliances (fridge)  seems very innefficient to me.
