Solar parking lot as an isolated solution? Solar carports with solar modules, wallbox and energy storage – Not every solution is a good solution

🌞 Advantages of solar carports

Solar carports offer an innovative solution to supply electric cars with environmentally friendly electricity. Equipped with a roof made of photovoltaic systems, they simultaneously act as protection for the vehicle and as a private source of energy. In the wake of the energy transition, homes with integrated energy solutions are becoming increasingly important. Private power generation is an attractive option, especially for owners of electric cars, to reduce dependence on external power sources.

💲 Market offers and economics

A current offer on the market is a solar carport for around 11,000 euros, fully equipped with solar modules, an energy storage device, a wallbox and additional sockets for electronic devices. But is this offer really as advantageous as it seems?

🔋 Efficiency and storage technology

The efficiency of the solar modules plays a crucial role. With a capacity of up to 5 kWp, these modules could generate enough energy to meet daily needs. Assuming average performance, households with average electricity consumption could benefit from a solar carport.

🧐 Critical aspects and long-term efficiency

However, there are some aspects to consider. The lead-gel battery included in the offer can only handle 600 to 800 charging cycles and has an effective capacity of approximately 25 kWh, despite a nominal capacity of 40 kWh. In the long term, modern lithium-ion batteries with higher cycle stability and lower maintenance requirements are often the better choice, despite their higher purchase costs.

🔄 Integrated energy management

A solar carport should therefore not be viewed in isolation. It is part of comprehensive energy management in your home. Networking with the home power network, intelligent energy management and carefully planned use of storage technologies significantly increase efficiency. If the system is designed accordingly, a large part of the electricity requirement can be covered even in the winter months.

🌦 Local conditions and material quality

In addition, aspects such as roof pitch, orientation and local weather conditions must be taken into account. The material quality and warranty conditions of the solar modules and battery storage are also important. Investments in high-quality components and professional installation ensure that the system functions reliably for many years.

💰 Government funding

Last but not least, government funding also plays a role. Subsidies and tax advantages can significantly increase the attractiveness of a solar carport. Prospective buyers should therefore thoroughly inform themselves about available subsidies, as these can significantly reduce acquisition and operating costs.

🌱 A decision for the future

Overall, the use of solar carports is a future-oriented decision. It helps reduce CO2 emissions, increases energy independence and can lead to long-term economic savings. Before purchasing, however, there should be a comprehensive analysis of individual circumstances and needs in order to find the best possible solution. Detailed advice from experts is therefore essential to ensure the optimal configuration of a solar carport.

Solar parking spaces are a promising way to generate renewable energy while optimizing limited space requirements in cities and urban areas. However, there are actually some challenges that can complicate the introduction of such parking spaces.

One of the biggest hurdles is the high cost and planning effort associated with installing solar panels in parking lots. Not only must the cost of the solar panels themselves be taken into account, but also the cost of the infrastructure required to connect the panels to the grid. In addition, the space required for installing the solar modules must be precisely planned and coordinated to ensure effective use of the available space.

Another obstacle are bureaucratic hurdles and approval processes that can make it difficult to install solar panels in parking lots. Depending on the region or country, different rules and regulations may apply, which can complicate the approval and implementation process.

Despite these challenges, there is high demand for solar parking spaces as they represent an effective way to promote renewable energy while optimizing space requirements in urban areas. With careful planning and collaboration between the parties involved, the hurdles can be overcome to facilitate the introduction of such parking spaces.
