Generate free electricity and an additional income with a solar canopy. Solar canopies enable you to provide shade from the sun and shelter from rain whilst collecting clean energy for your school or business. They are perfect for organisations that are unable to have solar panels installed on their roof due to the direction that the building is facing, or if shading is a problem. We can position our canopies to ensure that you get the best from your solar panels.

There are four designs of solar canopies within our range for you to choose from, all of which are robust free standing structures constructed from steel frames and covered with high quality solar panels supplied by solar experts SolarWorld. The solar panels are integrated into the canopy itself using SolarWorld's glass/glass panel design which is like nothing else on the market.

Our Solar Canopies are energy efficient structures that have a triple purpose of providing shade and shelter whilst also generating free electricity for your organisation; they are perfect for reducing your carbon footprint and saving costs on electricity bills. These canopies will also pay for themselves over the years through the electricity they generate.

Our free standing canopies can be used for covered waiting areas and walkways, playgrounds, trolley shelters, car parks, alfresco dining and much more. They are also brilliant for outdoor learning areas, offering the perfect opportunity to teach pupils about how solar energy is generated and how it can help to save the environment.
