Solar Panel Carport

Solar photovoltaic pv systems convert sunlight directly into electricity.

Solar panel carport.

Solar carports are overhead canopies built to cover parking areas and are distinct from panels installed onto a preexisting carport structure. Next to a ground mounted array a solar panel carport will likely be more expensive although the difference won t be quite as significant. We supply and design small low cost solar carports larger solar car parks and solar car charging stations for homes apartment buildings condominiums and multi unit dwellings. Permanent solar trellis and solar carports systems require little to no maintenance and allow easy access to panels for service and repair.

Solar carports have many things in common with ground mount solar panels which are angled panel modules installed on the ground rather than on a rooftop. It serves the dual purposes of protecting your car and provides a large surface area you can cover with solar photovoltaic pv panels. With a solar carport you can enjoy the benefits of solar without worrying about replacing the roof first. Carport mounted solar systems for homes are a popular use of otherwise unused structure and parking lot space.

A solar carport is a structure consisting of a solar paneled roof supported by posts. By utilizing parking areas in addition to existing building roofs solar carports can vastly increase the overall energy production of your solar project. These grid tie solar systems can help offset power consumed by hybrid or electric car charging. Comparing solar carports to ground mounting.
