Solar Carports: Shading Cars, Powering Tomorrow
As the demand for clean energy and smart urban infrastructure grows, solar carports are emerging as a practical and sustainable solution. These structures do more than just shield vehicles from sun and rain — they turn parking spaces into energy-generating assets.
But how impactful are they really? Let’s dive into the function, advantages, and future potential of solar carports.
