A parking space doesn't just have to be a practical space; it can now provide financial returns. How? By transforming your car park with solar panels. For companies and municipalities, this means not only a sustainable investment, but also a smart way to cut costs. You make best use of the available space with solar canopies.
A solar carport is a canopy for parking spaces equipped with solar panels. The roof of the carport is made of solar panels, generating energy that can be used to charge electric vehicles. The energy generated can also be used to power nearby buildings or even fed back into the energy grid (as long as the balancing scheme in force).
For businesses and municipalities, this means that your car park suddenly becomes much more than a place for visitors or staff to park their cars. While the cars are kept nice and dry and cool, you generate clean energy and reduce your CO2 emissions. And best of all, of course, you will recoup the investment through energy savings from the solar panels. Whether it is a small car park or a gigantic garage, a solar carport fits virtually everywhere.
We supply solar carports for single parking spaces to large car parks:
A solar carport is not only a canopy, but also a smart investment. A carport for one car, equipped with 9 Glass-Glass solar panels of 410 Wp, generates around 3,690 kWh annually, representing a CO2 saving of 1,080 kg per year. For a carport accommodating two cars, fitted with 15 solar panels, the annual yield is around 6,150 kWh. An entire car park with solar panels will not only multiply these savings, they will also help you take steps towards energy neutrality.
Our advisers will give you clear insight into the options for your car park. They will show you how much energy you can generate with solar carports and what this means for your energy bill. They will also make sure you are well informed about the applicable regulations and grants. That way, you know exactly what to expect and how to get the most out of your investment.
Our mission to accelerate the transition to solar energy began with an electric bicycle parking. Meanwhile, Shift to Solar has become a specialist in solar canopies. You can come to us for the complete package, from connecting the inverter to building the canopy itself. We guide you step by step.
