Practical solution for existing parking spaces with flexible parking bays. The simple modular installation along with a robust construction of hot-dip galvanized steel provides high corrosion resistance and a long lifespan.
This data is taken from a SolarCatcher project at a school in Ipswich.
Provide EV charging for staff and customers; and generate a growing revenue from your car park asset.
We can incorporate Battery Storage to increase the size of the solar array over the car park, to increase generation capacity and your revenue.
SolarCatcher installs the units - the project - at zero cost to the customer
Customer agrees to buy the energy it generates via 25 year PPA
Maintenance delivered by SolarCatcher on behalf of client
SolarCatcher manages EV charging & end customer service
Client receives margin share from EV charging activity
Client purchases the scheme and owns the assets outright.
SolarCatcher will provide an Operations & Maintenance Agreement to manage the equipment and the EV billing.
Solar car parks go beyond just parking - solar car canopies represent a leap towards sustainability, energy cost reduction, the expansion of EV charging and energy independence.
SolarCatcher canopies generate abundant clean renewable energy to reduce energy bills in adjacent buildings. The level of savings will be significant and will vary subject to the current prevailing utility supplier rate and the number of bays covered; 100 bays will save £millions over the term of the contract.
Public sector car park owners pay nothing for the capital cost of installation or the ongoing management of SolarCatcher projects. You benefit in the form of substantially reduced electricity bills and a share of EV charging revenue.
Each SolarCatcher unit avoids 2.3 tonnes of CO2 per annum so a car park with 100 parking bays will see 110.4 CO2 tonnes emissions abated every year.
SolarCatcher's durable steel structure is adaptable in the form of 8 design types to provide flexible, expandable solutions for all car park configurations. There is no car park which cannot benefit from turning 'dead' spaces into energy generating, cost saving assets.
Opportunity to lower and hedge against spiralling energy prices. Irrespective of what happens in the electricity market, the savings generated by SolarCatcher car canopies are secure and guaranteed.
The deployment of solar car park arrays and installation of EV chargers demonstrate a visible commitment to ESG and environmental stewardship.
The installation of solar micro energy grids in car parks mean direct access to clean renewable energy and this is enhanced with the additional installation of on site battery storage solutions; all managed on your behalf by Solev Energy.
SolarCatcher car park canopies can be installed with integrated EV charge points; 7kw and 22kw charging units which generate a share of income for the car park owner and deliver demonstrable benefits for staff and the car owning community.
SolarCatcher units and EV facilities are fully maintained by SEG at no cost to customers and car park owners, to ensure solar generation and EV charging services are operating to the required standards.
Improve the car park environment and enhance the user experience by installing shelter and cover for visitors as well as providing charging facilities for EV owners.
Each SolarCatcher unit avoids 2.3 tonnes of CO2 per annum so a car park with 100 parking bays will see 110.4 CO2 tonnes emissions abated every year, improving EPC ratings and demonstrating strong environmental stewardship.
Customers buy the solar energy at a significantly reduced price when compared to the utility supplier rate. Every kWh of solar energy generated by SolarCatcher means a net saving in your energy bills.
