eCanopys
The appeal of parking lots and rooftops for solar as opposed to undeveloped land is simple. They are abundant, close to customers, largely untapped for solar power generation, and on land that’s already been stripped of much of its biological value.
1. Better Usage of Current Space
A solar canopy will allow you to make better use of your commercial space. Contrary to popular belief, a solar canopy can be built above your pre-existing parking space as opposed to constructing a new building.
2. Reduced Energy Consumption
A solar canopy can reduce the amount of energy your building needs to operate. During peak sunlight midday, your parking lot’s EV charging can run off the power generated by the solar canopy. When the amount of green energy collected exceeds the needs of the moment, that power is then saved to your system for later use.
3. Shaded, Cooler and More Comfortable Cars
The cooling effect of solar parking structures is twofold. First, vehicles are covered from the impact of the sun when parked beneath a solar canopy. This protects cars and trucks from direct contact with the sun’s rays on hot, sunny days. For drivers, the effects of this shielding is very comforting as it leaves cars cooler throughout the time that customers and employees leave their cars parked under the cover. The savings that this natural cooling can provide is exponential. According to a study conducted by FuelEconomy.gov, AC usage can — fuel economy by 25 percent - and much of this consumption occurs immediately after a driver re-enters a hot, parked car.
4. Canopies are Green Branding
With a solar canopy, you can help to reduce the amount of greenhouse emissions that stem from your business property. In doing so, your business will be at the forefront of the green revolution. As more people embrace green energy, a solar canopy can help you gain a better reputation among the public at large.
