Lots of chat about solar and powering stuff here

I didn't really follow it but my gut from looking at cheap heaters for home use would be that you'd get nowhere near enough power from solar without spending a lot of money.

Not sure if asking here or the van thread is best (possibly some cross over); looking to keep an out of house office/workshop warm over winter. It’s got electric, it’s well insulated but also gets full sun on the roof. Only really need a low level of heat to keep the damp/condensation out and protects the batteries/electrics etc of the things that are in there.
Does such a thing as a solar powered storage heater exist? Or, failing that was thinking about the small space heater type things that campervans use but apart from solar panels, car battery and inverter as some of the parts have no idea if that’s feasible or realistic! Don’t want to spend a ton, would only be used in winter/when it gets properly cold to keep the temperature always above 5C ish so outright power isn’t needed, but quick, easy and mostly painless to install would be.
