Solar canopies, charging stations and parking lots

Car park solar canopies are one of the popular uses for solar panels. More and more often, such solar sheds are combined with charging stations for electric vehicles, which significantly expands the functionality of parking lots. From an application point of view, the electricity generated by such solar parks can be transferred to the grid, directly used for own needs, or stored in batteries for consumption at a more appropriate time.

Solar panels can be also installed both on the roofs of service stations and gas stations, and next to them on ground structures or in the form of a variety of solar sheds, including those that function as covered parking lots for cars. In addition to receiving cheap and environmentally friendly electricity, solar canopies protect people and equipment from negative weather conditions (rain or snow), provide comfortable shading from the influence of direct sunlight, and also bring additional aesthetics to the city environment.

With solar parking structures, you can provide numerous benefits to everyone who parks on your territory. For customers and employees, a solar canopy provides shade and coolness for their parked vehicles, which can translate into reduced electricity and fuel consumption. For businesses, the energy generated by the solar canopies often results in reduced energy bills.

Depending on its size a solar canopy might generate more energy than needed on a given day. On days that do yield excess green energy, the excess is stored within the building’s power supply for later hours when the sun is down. BESS is smart solution to store power for more late consumption.

Generate clean electricity with a solar carport or a solar canopy! Solar carports enable you to provide shade from the sun and shelter from rain whilst collecting clean energy for your business. Solar carports are perfect for companies that are unable to get solar panels installed on their roof due to the direction that the building faces, or if shading is a problem. Solar canopies often can be positioned to ensure that you get the best from your solar panels.
