Turn Your Car Park Into a Renewable Energy Asset
Commercial Solar Carports — Designed, Engineered & Delivered Across Ireland.
Transform existing parking areas into clean energy infrastructure. Solar Carports Ireland delivers commercial solar carport solutions combining renewable electricity generation, covered parking and integrated EV charging.
01What is a Solar Carport?
The airspace above your car park, generating electricity.
A solar carport is an engineered steel canopy erected over an existing car park. It supports a solar PV array that turns otherwise unused space into on-site renewable generation — while delivering covered parking and a platform for EV charging.
Unused airspace
Most commercial car parks sit open to the sky. The space above your bays is a stranded asset.
Engineered canopy
We erect a galvanised steel structure over the bays — sized to wind load, soil and vehicle clearance.
Solar PV array
High-efficiency modules are mounted on the canopy, oriented for optimal Irish yield.
On-site generation
Electricity feeds directly into your building supply, offsetting grid consumption and cost.
02One Car Park. Multiple Benefits.
A single asset that does four jobs at once.
A solar carport is not just generation. It is a combined energy, amenity, charging and carbon solution delivered through one engineered structure.
Electricity from space you already have
Panels on the canopy generate electricity that your building can use during the day, reducing the power you buy from the grid. The roof of your building is left untouched.
Covered parking
Staff, guests and customers park out of the rain, and vehicles are sheltered from frost and hail. Integrated gutters keep water off bays and walkways.
EV charging, planned in
Charge points can be installed beneath the canopy, with cabling routes and electrical capacity designed in from the start rather than retrofitted later.
Lower operational carbon
Every unit generated on site is a unit not imported from the grid, supporting Scope 2 emissions reporting and your organisation's climate commitments.
03From Car Park to Clean Energy
A complete project, delivered end to end.
We own the full lifecycle — from the first site walk to long-term performance monitoring. One accountable partner, one engineering-led process.
04Solar Carports + EV Charging
EV charging, designed with the energy system.
Solar generation and EV charging can be designed together around the site's building demand, available grid capacity and charging requirements. Smart load management helps optimise how available power is distributed.
Solar-integrated charging
Charging can be coordinated with available on-site solar generation and the site's wider electrical demand.
Smart load management
Dynamic load management can distribute available charging capacity across multiple bays.
Designed for future needs
The charging strategy can consider future fleet growth, additional chargers and evolving site requirements.
05Commercial Applications
Engineered for every commercial sector.
From pharmaceutical campuses to fleet depots, we design carport systems around your operational profile, consumption and site constraints.
Workplaces and office campuses
Staff car parks are full through the working day, when panels generate most. Covered bays and charge points are a visible benefit for employees.
Hotels
Covered arrival for guests, with EV charging for overnight stays and on-site generation to offset daytime demand.
Retail parks and shopping centres
Large open car parks and steady daytime demand. Canopies make shopping in poor weather more comfortable.
Fleet and logistics depots
Depot charging planned around vehicle numbers, duty cycles and the capacity of your electrical supply.
Industrial and pharmaceutical sites
High daytime consumption on sites where roof space is often limited or already in use.
Healthcare, education and public sector
Long operating hours and published climate commitments, with covered parking for staff and visitors.
