Solar Carports
Unused parking areas offer additional potential for sustainable energy supply at commercial and industrial sites. Solar carports combine electricity generation, weather protection, and charging infrastructure on an existing space, thereby providing dual benefits for the site.
The Benefits
Large parking areas are part of the existing infrastructure at many commercial and industrial sites. With solar carports, these areas can also be used for solar power generation without taking up additional space. The electricity generated can be used directly on-site. At the same time, synergies are created with charging infrastructure for company fleets, employees, and customers. Solar carports also serve as an alternative installation site when roof areas are unsuitable or only partially suitable for photovoltaics due to limited load-bearing capacity.
Solar Power Right on Site
Tapping into additional space for solar energy generation and increasing on-site consumption.
Combining photovoltaics and e-mobility
Solar power and charging infrastructure can be integrated into a single concept. This allows the energy generated to be used directly for company vehicles, employees, or customers.
An Alternative to Roof Space
Solar carports provide additional PV space when existing roofs are unsuitable—for example, due to their load-bearing capacity.
Protection from the Weather and Heat
Covered parking spaces protect vehicles and parking lot users from the sun and the elements while also improving the quality of the parking areas.
One space. Multiple functions.
Parking
The current use will remain unchanged.
Shooters
Both vehicles and people benefit from the canopy.
Generate Energy
Photovoltaics create additional generation capacity.
Load
Solar power can be combined with charging stations for electric vehicles.
Technically tailored to the site
Depending on the design and the specific project, PV modules with general building authority approval can be integrated into the roof structure. Additionally, solar carports can be combined with charging infrastructure and customized to meet the specific requirements of the commercial or industrial site.
Solar carports tap into untapped energy potential directly on company premises and combine photovoltaics, parking space, and e-mobility into a single solution.
