A solar carport is a structure designed to provide shelter for parked cars while also generating electricity from solar panels installed on its roof. It combines the function of a traditional carport with the added benefit of producing renewable energy.
Solar carports typically feature a metal or steel frame to support the solar panels, and they can be designed to accommodate different types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and RVs. The solar panels can either be mounted on top of the carport structure or integrated into the structure itself.
The electricity generated by the solar panels can be used to power the carport lighting or to feed electricity back into the grid for others to use. Some solar carports also include charging stations for electric vehicles, providing an environmentally friendly way to power EVs.
I carport solari stanno diventando sempre più popolari come un modo per ridurre l'impronta di carbonio dei parcheggi e fornire fonti di energia sostenibili per aziende e privati.
