You can use any type of solar panel for a shading structure including conventional monocrystalline or polycrystalline modules.
Car port solar panel installation.
With some smart design you can make use of this by integrating solar panels into shading structures for your homes such as pergolas canopies and carports.
One unique feature with solar carports is that they don t demand a surface or a roof for the installation of solar panels.
They are custom built to include inbuilt solar panels.
This makes them different from solar panel installations made on a pre existing carport.
Historically a crew of 6 8 trained installers could install between 100 200 panels in a normal work day.
Solar installation on a carport requires our engineering team to review the condition of the pre existing carport or the plans of a carport that s in construction.
What makes solar carports unique is that they do not require a roof or surface that the solar panels must attach to.
This is different from installing solar panels on an existing carport which already has a built in roof.
Types of solar panels for shading.
The carport design and materials used will help determine if and why type of solar panels can be installed.
Solar carports have many things in common with ground mount solar panels which are angled panel modules installed on the ground rather than on a rooftop.
