SOLAR CARPORT
Solar Carport: Powering sustainable and future-ready EV Infrastructure
In the world of Solar Carports the choice of materials can make all the difference—not just in aesthetics, but in sustainability, durability, and overall performance. Enter the wooden Solar Carport from Innoventum, a revolutionary step forward in eco-friendly construction that offers benefits far beyond those of traditional carports.
Choosing a Wooden Solar Carport isn’t just a decision for today. It is a commitment to a sustainable, high-performance future. By integrating advanced renewable energy solutions with eco-friendly construction materials, you’re making an investment in quality that will stand the test of time.
Make the sustainable, superior choice, with wood. Your carport, and the planet, will thank you.
Benefits of wooden Solar Carport includes:
Enhanced Energy Generation: Solar carports made with glulam (glued laminated timber) are an innovative solution to maximize onsite energy production. They effectively utilize available space, especially when traditional roof areas are not an option, boosting your facility’s energy capacity.
Cost Savings: By integrating solar panels into your carport design, you can significantly lower your energy bills. This sustainable investment not only pays for itself over time but also protects you from fluctuating energy costs. The Solar Carport can provide you with clean and free energy to run your complete EV-fleet.
Environmental Impact: Adopting commercial solar carports contributes to reducing your carbon footprint. This move enhances your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and showcases your commitment to green practices, boosting your company’s environmental credentials.
Electric Vehicle Charging: Solar carports offer the added benefit of integrating EV charging stations. These stations allow employees, visitors, and company vehicles to charge using clean, renewable energy generated on-site, promoting the adoption of electric vehicles.
Staff & Visitor Comfort: Glulam solar carports provide more than just energy benefits. They also protect vehicles from the elements and offer sheltered walkways for staff and visitors, enhancing comfort and convenience as they arrive at your premises.
Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond functionality, solar carports made from glulam add a modern, attractive element to your parking areas. They not only improve the visual appeal of your site but also create a strong statement about your commitment to sustainability and innovation.
Scandinavian wooden design
Glulam is derived from wood, the only truly renewable building material that actively captures and stores carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during its growth. By choosing Glulam over metal, you’re choosing a material that contributes to a reduction in carbon footprint, aligning your project with the principles of sustainability. Glulam is engineered to provide exceptional strength and rigidity, capable of easily supporting the weight of solar panels.
Its resistance to fire, rot, and pests, combined with its ability to withstand harsh weather conditions, makes it a long-lasting choice for any climate.
Bi-facial solar panels and hyper reflective coating for improved effectivity
With the latest technology in solar panels, We are able to offer 30 years warranty on the solar panels thanks to bi-facial bi-glas PV panels.
Combining the bi-facial panels with our patent-pending hyper reflective surface underneath the carport further improves to production up to 15% from the indirect light.

Quick and easy installation
To ensure a smooth and easy installation that minimizes the downtime of the installation site, we have taken multiple measures such as a Ground screw foundation instead of a concrete foundation where each screw is installed in a matter of hours instead of days.
Pre-assembly of the wooden legs on the ground on site and then using a click system to attach the beams between the legs enabling us to erect each wooden structure in 30 minutes.

Ground screw foundations; no need for concrete
To ensure a smooth and sustainable installation, we utilize Krinner Ground screws. The ground screws enable us to install the foundation in a matter of hours which significantly shortens the time of installation and minimal disturbance in the micro environment.
Seamless integration with EV infrastructure
We can seamlessly integrate the Solar Carport into your existing EV infrastructure and buildings or we can create the EV infrastructure with either our partners CTEK for advanced EV charging or Schneider Electric to build a separate DC-to-DC infrastructure to create a separate or grid-connected system ensuring the EV charging is available anywhere.

Eurocodes for compliance
The Solar Carport has been designed following the European standard for buildings and construction products called Eurocodes to ensure compliance, longevity, and safety.
The standard design can handle up to snow zone 2.5 (2.5 kN/m2)
Parking solutions
- We can offer the Solar Carport in many configurations to ensure that we find a suitable solution for you. As the Carport itself is endlessly scalable the base unit is 7.5m wide and fits 3 cars
- We recommend adding the hyper reflective surface underneath the Solar Carport to improve the indirect light which further improves the energy generation thanks to the bi-facial panels
- The energy produced from the Solar Carport can be used to charge electric vechicles or to power the facilities around the Solar Carport.
Why choose our Solar Carport?
- Carbon dioxide-neutral electricity for your EV
- Structure in larch wood that has bound 2-3 tons of carbon dioxide depending on the model.
- Patent-protected solution with double-sided solar panels and highly reflective substrate. Both direct and indirect sunlight is captured and thus gives you at least 15% more green electricity for your electric car.
- With the energy your carport produces you can drive 3000 – 4300 miles per year without emissions. Excess production goes into your house and lowers your electricity bill.
