Photovoltaic carport is an innovative product that combines photovoltaic power generation system with carport structure. It not only provides parking space for vehicles to protect from wind and rain, but also uses solar photovoltaic power generation to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction and effective use of resources.
Functional features
Sunshade and rain protection: KingSolar has the basic functions of traditional carports, providing reliable protection for vehicles, effectively preventing direct sunlight and rain erosion, and extending the service life of vehicles.
Photovoltaic power generation: Solar photovoltaic panels are installed on the top of the carport, which can convert solar energy into electrical energy, which can be used for the lighting and charging facilities of the carport itself. The excess electricity can also be incorporated into the power grid to bring additional economic benefits.
Beautiful and durable: Adopting modern design concepts, the carport has a simple and smooth shape and beautiful lines, which can be perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment. At the same time, high-quality materials are selected, which have good corrosion resistance, aging resistance, wind resistance and pressure resistance, ensuring long-term and stable use.
Product structure and material
Carport frame structure: KingSolar carport adopts high-strength steel structure or aluminum alloy structure. Steel structure carports have the characteristics of high strength and good stability, and can withstand large loads; aluminum alloy structure carports have the advantages of light weight, corrosion resistance, and beautiful appearance, and are suitable for places with high requirements for appearance.
Roof structure: Generally, a sloping roof or a flat roof design is adopted. The sloping roof design is conducive to rainwater discharge and reduces water accumulation. At the same time, it can better adapt to different light angles and improve photovoltaic power generation efficiency; the flat roof design is more concise and beautiful, and is suitable for places with limited space or special requirements for appearance.
Photovoltaic module
Type: Commonly used photovoltaic modules include monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon and thin-film solar panels. Monocrystalline silicon solar panels have high conversion efficiency and stable performance, but the cost is relatively high; polycrystalline silicon solar panels have low cost and considerable conversion efficiency, and are currently widely used in the market; thin-film solar panels have the advantages of lightness, flexibility, and strong weak light performance, and are suitable for some special application scenarios.
Specifications: According to the area of the carport and power generation needs, photovoltaic modules of different specifications can be selected. Common photovoltaic modules have a power range of 250W - 550W, and there are many sizes to choose from, such as 1650mm×992mm, 1956mm×992mm, etc.
Other accessories
Bracket system: used to fix photovoltaic modules, usually made of aluminum alloy or galvanized steel, with good corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, which can ensure the stable installation of photovoltaic modules in various harsh environments.
Electrical system: including inverters, distribution boxes, cables and other equipment. The inverter converts the direct current generated by the photovoltaic module into alternating current for access to the power grid or for users; the distribution box is used to distribute and control the electric energy to ensure the safety of electricity use; the cable is responsible for transmitting the electric energy, and has good insulation and conductivity.
Service life: The service life of the photovoltaic carport is usually more than 25 years. Among them, the service life of the photovoltaic module is generally 25-30 years, and the carport frame of the steel structure or aluminum alloy structure can also meet the use requirements of more than 25 years after good anti-corrosion treatment.
Wind resistance: According to the wind load requirements in different regions, the design wind resistance of photovoltaic carports is generally around 10-12 levels. Through reasonable structural design and strengthening measures, the safety and stability of the carport can be ensured in strong wind weather.
Waterproof performance: The top of the carport is treated with professional waterproof membrane or waterproof coating, combined with a reasonable drainage system, which can effectively prevent rainwater leakage, ensure the dryness inside the carport, and protect vehicles and equipment from rain damage.
Product application scenarios
Commercial places: Parking lots such as shopping malls, supermarkets, hotels, office buildings, etc. can use photovoltaic carports to provide sunshade and charging services for vehicles, while reducing the electricity cost of commercial places, and enhancing the social image and environmental benefits of the enterprise.
Industrial plant: The installation of photovoltaic carports on the top of the parking lot or logistics warehouse inside the factory can not only meet the parking needs of vehicles, but also provide part of the electricity for factory production, achieve energy conservation and emission reduction, and reduce the operating costs of enterprises.
Residential communities: Provide shade and rain protection for the vehicles of residents in the community, and use photovoltaic power generation to power public facilities in the community, such as street lights and elevators, to reduce the electricity bills of the community and improve the quality of life of residents.
Public institutions: Parking lots of units such as schools, hospitals, and government agencies can make full use of idle space by building photovoltaic carports, achieve self-sufficiency in green energy, and reflect the environmental protection demonstration role of public institutions.
Highway service areas: Provide rest and charging places for passing vehicles, use solar photovoltaic power generation to meet part of the electricity demand of the service area, reduce dependence on traditional energy, and also add a beautiful landscape along the highway.
