Over a 30 year period, substantial energy cost savings are predicted from the project. Installed in early 2018 to the top 2 levels of a multi-storey car park, the bespoke solar carport structure from FlexiSolar was part of the car park refurbishment plans, to allow already existing EV charge-points to be more energy efficient.
Multifunctional solar carports are typically more cost effective than installing the three technologies (i.e. PV, energy storage and EV charge-points) separately, as they share infrastructure and project delivery costs. In addition, solar car parks can reduce operational costs of EV charge-point and increase electricity supply security7.
Solar carport systems include a number of key components that require considerable electrical and mechanical design. Solar car parks range in size from a single carport arrangement for one parking space to large multi-bay car parks. We went through the basic of solar carports design in our previous article.
Our solar PV carports are capable of generating 3,000kWh of electricity per year, enough to power the average plug-in electric vehicle for over 12,000 miles a year in the UK. That means free car travel for life.
Solar carports should be designed to withstand vehicles impacting the structure at speeds of up to 20mph as described in ‘BS EN 1991-1-7: General Actions. Accidental Actions’. Carports should only be accessed from underneath the roof structure as the PV glazing is classified as a fragile roof.
The findings showed that a solar carport system would be a feasible and efficient option for meeting the energy demands of the university . In several studies, the analysis of PV systems installed on parking lots is optimally coupled with electric vehicles (EVs).
