How To Save Money on a Solar Carport

Solar carports make parking spaces more productive, generating electricity for home appliances and EV charging stations. They have a higher cost than rooftop solar systems, since they require an independent structure. However, the solar carport design can have an orientation that increases solar radiation on the PV modules, which results in a higher electricity output.

A solar carport is a viable option if you have an outdoor parking area that gets abundant sunshine, especially if your roof is constantly shaded. The required structure makes solar carports more expensive than traditional installations. How To Save Money on a Solar Carport?
