Why Choose a Solar Carport?

Carports are an affordable and effective option for protecting your vehicle, even though they don’t provide as much security or protection as a garage. A solar carport has been built with solar panels to provide energy for your home or business. Adding solar panels to a carport versus your home reduces the risk of roof damage or uninstalling and reinstalling solar panels to replace your home’s roof, which can be costly. This makes solar carports a safer financial choice. It may also be easier to maintain depending on the type of carport and the pitch of its roof.

How Solar Carports Benefit You

Solar carports offer the best of both worlds by optimizing your current amount of space by increasing productivity. Not only are you providing an area to protect your car or host events, but you’re saving money and protecting the environment by using solar panels. 

Advantages of solar carports include:

• Significant savings: Solar carports minimize energy expenses because of solar energy, but they also reduce the cost of maintaining where your cars are parked because they prevent rain, ice, and snow from building up or causing unsafe situations.
• Incentives: There are available federal solar tax credits on the residential and commercial levels that can reduce the cost of a solar carport by up to 30%. There may also be state-specific incentives, including rebates or tax credits.
• EV charging: It may seem challenging to accommodate an electric vehicle at your home or business because of their charging requirements. However, EV charging becomes significantly more manageable since the panels and batteries will be stored and connected to the carport. This reduces the time you may spend at a public station and can significantly increase your potential employee or customer base.
• More solar power:  If for some reason you can’t have a rooftop application or there’s not enough space to fully power your home, a carport increases the space significantly to increase your savings, offset your carbon footprint, and protect your vehicle or event from the weather.
