Commercial Work
Solar Canopy & EV Charging System
Clean Energy Generation
The system utilizes approximately 570 high-efficiency 350-watt solar panels, mounted on a durable steel canopy structure. This elevated design maximizes solar exposure while providing shaded parking below, creating a dual-purpose solution that optimizes land use.
Advanced Inverter Technology
Power conversion is handled by two 100 kW SMA Sunny Boy inverters, ensuring reliable and efficient energy production. This dual-inverter configuration enhances system performance, provides operational redundancy, and allows for streamlined maintenance.
Integrated EV Charging
Beneath the canopy, 13 EV charging stations are installed to support the growing demand for electric vehicles. The chargers are conveniently located and protected from the elements, offering users a comfortable and accessible charging experience powered in part by on-site solar energy.
Smart, Sustainable Design
- Dual-use infrastructure: energy generation + shaded parking
- Reduced operational energy costs
- Supports clean transportation initiatives
- Grid-tied system for seamless energy integration
Environmental Impact
This solar canopy system generates an estimated 260,000–320,000 kWh annually, significantly reducing carbon emissions and contributing to a more sustainable energy future
