Solar Carports allow for a large number of panels to be installed and offer a more efficient use of space. Solar carports need no other land [as ground mounts do] they merely need vertical square footage. Rooftop solar design is limited to the buildings physical roof area availability. Parking lots are ideal for solar carport installation! Benefits of Solar Carports: Solar Carports make it possible to be energy self-sufficient. By having an on-site power plant, a business can avoid costly rate increases, blackouts and brownouts, and remain in production. Stabilizing its cash flow! Numerous states offer Solar Carport installation incentives. Investment tax credit, rebates, grant programs, SMART programs. Solar Carports make parking safer. LED lights installed on the structure, and powered by the solar system, cast more light per square foot; lighting up more spaces than one light pole! Solar Carports capture more sunlight! Engineers design their solar support systems to tilt in a specific direction.
