Solar photovoltaic parking lot shades

As an expert in photovoltaic solar energy, GreenYellow handles your photovoltaic shade installation projects from A to Z.
Produce green, local, low-cost electricity with an installation tailored to your needs.

What is a Photovoltaic Shade?

A photovoltaic shade is a structure designed to provide shade and protect vehicles from the elements, while producing solar energy. It consists of a horizontal or oblique surface covered with photovoltaic panels.

Thanks to the installation of photovoltaic shading systems :

  • Add value to your parking lots
  • Reduce your energy bill
  • Produce the energy you consume
  • Respond to and benefit from regulatory changes
  • Meet your environmental commitments
  • Improve your image
  • Bring new services to your clients / visitors or collaborators

How does a photovoltaic shade work?

Photovoltaic shading works by converting sunlight into electrical energy. When sunlight strikes the photovoltaic cells, it displaces the electrons in the silicon. As the silicon moves, it generates a direct electric current. Thanks to a photovoltaic inverter, the direct current is converted into alternating current, supplying your sites and enabling your company to reduce its energy bill.

Photovoltaic energy production varies according to the amount of sunlight and therefore the season and time of day. To optimize the use of solar energy, you can install a hybrid solar system including an energy storage system (storage batteries) for later use.

Self-consumption with photovoltaic shade systems

Thanks to photovoltaic shading and solar energy production solutions, your company can directly consume the energy produced locally. In addition to adding value to your unused space, self-consumption enables you to :

  • Produce green, local electricity to cover part of your energy needs
  • Reduce your energy bill
  • Reduce your dependence on the grid

Other photovoltaic solar solutions

Floor truss

Optimize and make the most of unused space by installing a ground-mounted photovoltaic farm. Covering an area of several hectares, this system recovers the energy produced by the sun's rays through solar panels to produce green, local, low-cost electricity.

Solar farms can also be set up on cultivated land, producing energy while protecting crops - a form of agrivolatism.

The best sites for a ground-mounted farm are open, flat plots of land several hectares in size, or in water retention basins. Photovoltaic farms are open to all companies, subject to certain conditions:

  • Own the land
  • Obtain agreement for connection to the power grid
  • Suitability for urban planning documents

Rooftop power plant

Add value to your roofs by installing a solar plant photovoltaic system, and reduce your energy bill through self-consumption. Installing a rooftop power plant enables your company to consume the energy produced on site directly, reducing the amount of energy drawn from the grid.

Solar Floating

Mounted on a floating structure, the installation of solar panels on a body of water enables your company to generate solar energy without taking up any land. Take advantage of the many related benefits of a floating solar farm:
  • Reduce evaporation from your water features
  • Quicker installation and dismantling thanks to the absence of a fixed structure
  • Improved yields thanks to cooling systems incorporating a layer of water over the photovoltaic modules or using submerged modules
  • Controlling algae blooms

Hybrid solar system

With our hybrid solar solution, combining renewable energies and conventional generation or storage systems, you have full control over how and how much energy is produced. Thanks to the hybrid system, you can choose to store the energy produced for later use and increase your share of self-consumption.

With the Hybrid Solar System, you benefit from:

  • The future use of solar energy
  • Reducing energy consumption on the power grid
  • Reduce your energy bill
  • Front-end management of your consumption

Photovoltaic shading systems offer significant economic benefits. In addition to reducing your energy bill and your dependence on the grid, installing a shade structure allows you to enhance the value of your parking lots.
With GreenYellow, find the most profitable photovoltaic solution and commit your company to the energy transition.
