Photovoltaic carports

Solar carports, also known as “photovoltaic carports”, are structures covered with photovoltaic panels, designed to cover car parks ranging from 2 to several hundred parking spaces.

Photovoltaic carports are used to protect vehicles against the weather (rain, hail, strong heat) and to value car parks, while producing green electricity which makes them environmentally responsible. Car parks, which are generally sites dedicated exclusively to parking, thus become solar electricity generating sites.

Ideal for large areas, photovoltaic carports can be installed over thousands of square meters representing capacities of up to several MWp.

Parking carports can effectively contribute to sustainable development. They can also be used to collect rainwater and to supply power to a large number of electric vehicles, via recharging terminals.

GÉNÉRALE DU SOLAIRE offers its services and expertise to develop and build photovoltaic carports in all types of car parks, including the following:

  • Hypermarket and shopping centre car parks;
  • Company car parks;
  • Airport, railway or bus station car parks;
  • Exhibition centre car parks;
  • Amusement park car parks;
  • Public car parks, etc.
