Solar Car Park Solutions...
For context, there are currently around 32.5 million cars registered on the UK's roads. By 2030, it is anticipated that there will be approximately 18 million hybrid or electric cars in the UK. After 2030, the Government’s ambition is that at least 50%, and as many as 70%, of new car sales – and up to 40% of new van sales – should be ultra-low emission.
As this move toward electric vehicles continues, the requirements of what a car park needs to provide will have to adapt to meet these new requirements. KaraSolar can help your car park meet the ever-increasing EV charging demand. We can even help your car park to become more profitable. Earn extra income with ‘Pay-To-Charge’ facilities; your margins will become even greater if you sell the electricity your solar canopies generate.

Custom Design...
The ways in which we design our structures today take more and more into account the building's carbon footprint, not only in its construction and maintenance but also in how it performs for us. With solar panels that can bend, glass panels that allow some daylight through, or even double-sided panels that absorb light from both sides, today’s technology allows for the architectural use of a solar panel to enhance the aesthetics and performance of any structure.
From covered walkways and pergolas to large commercial structures we are always excited to get creative. If you require a structure with integrated solar technology we would love to hear from you. We can help with design, planning, manufacturing, installation and maintenance. We welcome all enquires and are happy to give an estimated cost for any project ideas.

Powder Coated Colour Options
Branding & Advertising
Our steel solar carports and canopies are all made of galvanised British steel. It is possible to have a powder-coated finish using almost any RAL colour. Blend your structure with its environment or match it to your company branding. Our solar structures also allow for the opportunity of displaying advertising boards if required.
Solar System Design...
Every solar panel system installed by KaraSolar is designed to match the client's exact needs. From budget restraints to space available we will communicate with you to understand exactly what is required for your installation.
We can include additional items such as batteries and EV chargers and connect them to any existing electrical system (may require some further upgrades).
Commercial or domestic we will always give a straight forward honest opinion. We will design a system to suit you, not us. Above all, you can be assured of a smooth, efficient and friendly service.
Solar System Performance...
We use the software provided by OpenSolar to help us calculate the expected performance of your solar panel system. These estimates take into account the direction of the panels, the pitch, shading patterns, locations and seasons in order to provide a very accurate model.
Your proposal will show a curve of your current usage (in grey) with an estimate of what your system should generate on average per day month on month (in orange).
We can adjust consumption curves and peaks, and set day, night and weekend profiles in order to get this very accurate or we can just use your monthly bills to give us an approximate guide.
*Calculated using OpenSolar. Please see below for more information.
Bill Savings...
If you are happy to provide us with your current or projected energy usage your solar proposal will include an estimate of the impact installing your system will have, both in kWh and in GBP. We will clearly show the reduction you should expect to see on your monthly electric bill.
You would be amazed by how much this adds up over the life of your solar panel system. If you have recently or intend to purchase an EV, this also means free mileage.
*Calculated using OpenSolar. Please see below for more information.
Environmental Benefit..
When there is a massive solar energy spill, they call it a beautiful sunny day!
Ensuring a cleaner and more sustainable future for generations to come is priceless. Solar energy is one of the cleanest forms of energy on the planet. With warranties available for up to 25 years and an active production life as high as 40 years, your clean energy solar investment is one that will benefit generations to come.
Your proposal will provide you with information on the reduction of CO2 that we will benefit by this solar installation.
*Calculated using OpenSolar. Please see below for more information.
Financial Benefit...
Between government tax incentives and compelling purchase and finance options, it's easier than ever to move to solar. Recover the costs of your system in a matter of 4-8 years, in most cases. Financing packages are available that have minimal upfront costs—just a cheaper monthly energy bill and a much cleaner carbon footprint.
Your solar proposal will include a long-term financial graph to show what you can expect to save over the next 20 years, how long it would take to recover your initial investment and even calculate the equivalent interest rate you would need to be offered in order to get this return on your outlay.
