01What is a Solar Carport?

The airspace above your car park, generating electricity.

A solar carport is an engineered steel canopy erected over an existing car park. It supports a solar PV array that turns otherwise unused space into on-site renewable generation — while delivering covered parking and a platform for EV charging.

01

Unused airspace

Most commercial car parks sit open to the sky. The space above your bays is a stranded asset.

02

Engineered canopy

We erect a galvanised steel structure over the bays — sized to wind load, soil and vehicle clearance.

03

Solar PV array

High-efficiency modules are mounted on the canopy, oriented for optimal Irish yield.

04

On-site generation

Electricity feeds directly into your building supply, offsetting grid consumption and cost.

02One Car Park. Multiple Benefits.

A single asset that does four jobs at once.

A solar carport is not just generation. It is a combined energy, amenity, charging and carbon solution delivered through one engineered structure.

Generate Clean Energy

Convert the unused airspace above your car park into on-site renewable electricity, directly offsetting grid consumption and energy costs.

Covered Parking

Protect vehicles and visitors from Irish weather — rain, hail and frost — with engineered steel canopies, integrated guttering and weather-tight roof detailing. A tangible amenity upgrade for any campus or facility.

EV Charging

Integrate solar-synced EV charging directly beneath the canopy, powered by on-site generation and smart load management.

Carbon Reduction

Deliver measurable Scope 1 & 2 carbon reductions and accelerate your organisation's path to Net Zero with auditable clean energy.

03From Car Park to Clean Energy

A complete project, delivered end to end.

We own the full lifecycle — from the first site walk to long-term performance monitoring. One accountable partner, one engineering-led process.

04Solar Carports + EV Charging

EV charging, designed with the energy system.

Solar generation and EV charging can be designed together around the site's building demand, available grid capacity and charging requirements. Smart load management helps optimise how available power is distributed.

Solar-integrated charging

Charging can be coordinated with available on-site solar generation and the site's wider electrical demand.

Smart load management

Dynamic load management can distribute available charging capacity across multiple bays.

Designed for future needs

The charging strategy can consider future fleet growth, additional chargers and evolving site requirements.
