What Are Commercial Solar Carports?

By Nancy Young


One of the emerging technologies in renewable energy is the development of solar carports. They have gained a lot of popularity over the years and many commercial entities are integrating them as a solar power initiative. Commercial solar carports are fast becoming an integral part of any solar power commercial project.

This is because they have several advantages to establishments embracing renewable energy. With the constant increase in electricity and fuel prices, renewable energy is becoming more and more lucrative. It holds a bright future for many businesses looking to remain relevant. It will soon become a common sight to see solar panels and other solar related devices in major towns and cities.

Electric cars that are powered by solar will also become increasingly common. This will be in the near future and some companies have already prepared for this. They have set up carports that have the capability of charging several solar-powered cars daily. Others are already planning for this future.

The major advantage of solar carports is their utilization of space. Unlike other solar panels that are mounted on the ground, these panels offer additional benefits. Cars can be packed underneath and get shade.

They are utilizing the already existing space in a better and more functional way. This is unlike the other solar panels that are usually mounted on the ground. They take up the existing large parking areas and make them more useful.

The power generated is enough to power electric vehicles. It can also be increased to power the electricity needs of the buildings nearby. This can lead to massive savings in electricity costs. The carports are a preferred option for businesses looking to invest in solar power. They are certainly more affordable than the solar roof power systems. Various designs are also available.

In some of the designs, the panels are usually angled in a manner that allows them to get maximum exposure to the sun throughout the day. The designs also consider factors such as rain and other building system logistics that directly impact rooftop installations.

Most of the solar carports installations are being developed in educational institutions such as universities and colleges. Others can also be found in shopping malls and other commercial parking areas. The designs used in all these areas are dependent on the budgets and the layout of the area. Custom designs can also be done to create unique projects.

When you compare the maintenance costs of the different types of solar systems available, this one ranks as the best as it involves low maintenance costs. Very little maintenance is involved periodically. When repairs need to be done, access to the solar panels is also very easy.

Commercial entities should consider solar carports as one of their options when considering capital improvements. It not only maximizes leasehold improvements and reduces energy costs it also ends up to increased profits. This is due to the reduction in expenses, the acceleration in depreciation and the tax strategies that are associated with renewable energy projects.

There are other unforeseen benefits that have been realized with these projects. Staff motivation has been achieved with employees feeling proud of working with organizations that take renewable energy solutions seriously. This has led them to also take up solar solutions at a personal level.
