Generate energy in your car park

We are one of the most experienced in the UK at designing and installing solar carport systems. We were the first to design and install a system of this kind on the top deck of a multistorey car park back in 2015. This was also at the time the largest of its kind. We have since installed systems across the UK.  

With a solar car port you can use your car park to generate energy. A specialist structure on top of the car parking spaces is fitted with solar PV panels and the energy generated can then be used on site or exported to the national grid.

These types of systems require very specialist design, to ensure that the structure is weatherproof and helps you save money while generating clean, renewable energy. Our experienced team is always happy to discuss your options with you.

What is a Solar Carport?

A solar carport is a ground-mounted canopy steel structure which produces clean, renewable energy from sunlight and also provides shelter for vehicles. By harnessing clean, renewable energy from the sun, solar carports generate energy that can be used on-site and (or) for charging electric vehicles but also any excess can be exported back to the grid.

Solar carports are adaptable to various parking space configurations and can be customised to fit within their surroundings, seamlessly integrating into the environment. Solar carports can be installed either separately or alongside a roof-mounted solar PV system at your commercial business. They are especially beneficial for businesses that are considering solar solutions but lack sufficient roof space or have roofs occupied by vents or skylights.

Revolutionise your parking experience with solar carports – where sleek design meets sustainable energy.
