Developed by Chinese manufacturer Enerack, the structure can accommodate all types and sizes of solar panels and is designed using waterproof technologies to guarantee protection against rain.The system can be connected to the network, linked to a storage system, or used for charging electric vehicles.According to pv magazine international.Chinese photovoltaic mounting system supplier Enerack offers a solar shade solution for shopping malls, gas stations, public parking lots and private homes."The main market for our solar carport is Europe, but we have also sold the system to the Middle East, South Africa, Panama, Guatemala and Chile," said Ivan Yordanov, designer and developer of the company, to pv magazine.According to the company, the structure can accommodate all types and sizes of solar panels.“We started developing the system a few years ago, when the average solar module size was 1,755mm x 1,038 x 35.mm and the output power was 300W,” Yordanov said.“Today, our shade system can accommodate modules with dimensions up to 2,280 mm x 1,133 mm x 35 mm.”The panels can be installed with a tilt angle ranging from 5 to 30 degrees and in a landscape or portrait configuration.The shade is made with an aluminum alloy type AL6005-T5 and equipped with a longitudinal gutter capable of collecting water from the horizontal spaces between the solar modules.“To limit the ingress of water into the system as much as possible, the solar panels are installed at a distance of 1 mm,” Yordanov said.“The solar panel mounting device is designed so that it can be attached from the bottom of the module itself using a custom clamp, making installation easier.»The system is scalable in a megawatt-scale configuration.“We use fittings and gutter cutouts, which allows more solar modules to be installed,” says Yordanov.“Each shade can accommodate more or fewer modules, depending on the size and characteristics of the project.»The system can be connected to the network, linked to a storage system, or used for charging electric vehicles.“The cost of a basic two-vehicle system ranges between $1,300 and $1,350,” Yordanov concluded.This content is copyrighted and you may not reuse it without permission.If you wish to collaborate with us and reuse our content, please contact our editorial team at the following address: editors@pv-magazine.com.Please pay attention to our community charter.Your email address will not be published.Mandatory fields are marked with *Save my name, email and site in the browser for my next comment.By submitting this form you agree that pv magazine will use your data for the purpose of publishing your comment.Your personal data will only be disclosed or transmitted to third parties for spam filter purposes or if necessary for the technical maintenance of the website.A transfer of your data to third parties for any other reason can only take place if it is justified by data protection legislation, or if pv magazine is legally obliged to do so.You can revoke this consent at any time with future effect, in which case your personal data will be deleted immediately.Otherwise, your data will be deleted once pv magazine has processed your request or when the purpose of data storage has been fulfilled.For more information on data privacy, please see our Data Protection Policy.Legal notice Terms and conditions Privacy policy © pv magazine 2022This website uses cookies to anonymously count visitor numbers.To find out more, please see our Data Protection Policy.×The cookie settings on this website are set to "allow cookies" to give you the best browsing experience possible.If you continue to use this website without changing your cookie settings or you click "Accept" below then you are consenting to this.
