Photovoltaic carport is a distributed photovoltaic power station that integrates solar power generation and car parking functions. It is mainly used in high-speed service areas, large parking lots, commercial centers, scenic spots and other places. It has multiple functions, such as enhancing the aesthetics of buildings and saving energy. Land use, clean energy supply, etc. Solar energy can be converted into electricity through photovoltaic panels installed on top of the carport.
Photovoltaic carports are generally provided by manufacturers with professional installation services, usually requiring an appointment. The size, shape and other special requirements of the carport need to be provided before installation, and the manufacturer will design and install it according to the actual situation. The advantage of this method is that the installation process is simple, and safety and quality can be guaranteed.
In addition, the appearance and form of photovoltaic carports are also varied. The following are several common styles of photovoltaic carports:
Style 1: single parking space
The single-car PV carport can withstand winds of up to 90 mph with a minimum snow load of 30 pounds per square foot. Solar panels are usually installed on top of the carport at an inclination angle of 5° to 10°. The column of the carport is made of H-shaped steel Q235B, and the surface is covered with primer or hot-dip galvanized. The carport beam is made of C-shaped steel, and the surface is treated with zinc-magnesium-aluminum 275G. The waterproof tank is made of M-shaped steel, and it is also treated with zinc-magnesium-aluminum 275G surface treatment.
Style 2: Double parking spaces
The double-car photovoltaic carport can withstand winds of up to 90 mph and a minimum snow load of 30 pounds per square foot. Solar panels are usually installed on top of the carport at an inclination angle between 5° and 10°. The column of the carport is made of H-shaped steel Q235B, which can provide good support. In addition, the surface of the carport is primed or hot-dip galvanized, which can effectively prevent the steel from rusting and corroding. The beam is made of C-shaped steel, and zinc-magnesium-aluminum 275G is used for surface treatment to enhance its compression and anti-corrosion capabilities.
Style 3: square tube single parking space
The square tube single parking space is consistent with the first two styles in terms of wind load, snow load, and inclination angle, but the column is made of square tube Q235B. Compared with the H-shaped steel column, the square tube column has certain advantages in terms of stability, compression resistance and deformation resistance, and can provide a stable and reliable parking environment for vehicles.
