Smart City Ready – Smart Grid Ready – solar modular system
The carport, once discovered as a cheap alternative to the more expensive and increasingly cramped garages, is now increasingly becoming a lifestyle and all-rounder object of the future.
With photovoltaics and the growing importance of green electricity, the "car port" (a combination of the English words "car" and "port") is evolving into a decentralized and networked solar charging station of the future. In the future, it will no longer just passively protect cars from the elements; it will also sustainably produce green electricity using rooftop photovoltaics and, ideally, store it in a battery storage system.

The scalable and modular solar carport construction kit system
Many good approaches already exist. But none are like the HELIOS Carport System from T.Werk GmbH in Ellzee. It is suitable for individual solar carports as well as large company or public parking lots, can be flexibly used as an additional solar charging station, and, above all, is easy to plan.
Systematic planning seems to be T.Werk's guiding principle. As with all its products, T.Werk prioritizes high quality, quick assembly, and flexible application, which ultimately pays off. This is also true for the HELIOS carport from T.Werk, where planning reliability is paramount, preventing costly corrections and retrofits.
HELIOS carports are, in effect, Smart City and Smart Grid ready. They offer a full range of modular options. For whatever reason, the HELIOS carport is also available without a PV mounting system. It can therefore be used like a building block system. Charging stations, inverters, and other Smart City and Smart Grid options are easy to install.
Single carport, double carport, or row carport. For any number of even or odd rows of parking spaces. What more could a planner want? It doesn't even get better with Lego.
For example, on a 50×50 m (2,500 m²) area, including the driveways between the parking spaces, 96 vehicles (6 rows of 8 double carports each) and approx. 360 kWp (972 modules with 370 Wp, 1,740×1,030×35 mm) can fit
This makes the HELIOS Carport system ideally suited for both individual smaller and large solar parking projects:
- Elegant, clean design
- Easy parking thanks to W-shaped support arrangement
- Suitable for very high snow loads even in the standard version
- Convenient parking and easy exit thanks to wide parking spaces
- Available with and without PV mounting system
- Available as single and double carports as well as in rows for any even and odd rows of parking spaces
- High-quality construction with laser-cut square tubes
- High maximum span of the trapezoidal sheet (walkable by individuals even without load-distributing measures)
- Quick and easy assembly
- Charging stations, inverters, etc. are easy to install
- In a further development step, it can also be used for transparent glass-glass modules without additional covering
- Carport customizable to customer requirements (size, color, foundation preparation, etc.)
In terms of price, the solar carport than a conventional carport, but still considerably cheaper than a typical garage.
The approximate guide price, depending on the project, is between €1,200 and €1,500 per parking space with trapezoidal sheet metal and short rail system. The foundation is an additional cost.
