Benefits

Solar Carport & Solar Car Park Benefits

01
Reduce Electricity Costs

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.

02
Fully Funded

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.

03
Reduce Carbon Footprint

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.

04
Flexible & Modular

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.

05
Reduce Dependence on Grid

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.

06
Visible Commitment to the Green Economy and Net Zero

The deployment of solar car park arrays and installation of EV chargers demonstrate a visible commitment to ESG and environmental stewardship.

07
Security of Energy Supply

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.

08
Provide EV Charging for Staff and VIsitors

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.

09
Fully Maintained Assets

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.

10
Protect Drivers and Vehicles

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.

11
Improved EPC Rating and ESG Credentials

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.

12
Reduce Energy Bills

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.
