Parking canopies

Enhancing car parks with solar energy

Photovoltaic canopies transform existing car parks into useful energy infrastructures, without any additional land take. They deliver a dual benefit: improving user comfort while producing locally generated renewable electricity, which can notably be used to supply electric vehicle charging stations.

A functional and sustainable solution

Installed on already developed surfaces, solar canopies provide a practical response to local energy and climate challenges, while enhancing spaces that are currently underutilised.

Benefits for businesses, retail sites and local authorities

• Protection of vehicles from heat, rain and hail
• Local green electricity generation, for self-consumption or grid injection
• Improved comfort for visitors, users and employees
• Potential integration of electric vehicle charging points
• Increased site attractiveness and strengthened environmental image
• Support for CSR strategies and contribution to certification schemes and climate objectives

Photovoltaic canopies are therefore part of an optimised land-use approach, reconciling everyday uses, the energy transition and environmental performance.
