SunPark™ Light

Modular Solar Carport (2 to 6 spaces)

IntertekCe

Key specifications

Material

100% aluminum structure and components, stainless steel bolts & nuts.

Max Snow Load

Can be designed for any snow loads (up to 100 PSF

Max Wind Loads

Can be designed for any wind loads (up to 180MPH)

Tilt Angle

15 typical

PV Panel Orientation

Landscape on rails (supported on the long side of the panels)

Module

Any framed PV, any frameless PV, monofacial or bifacial, optimized for bifacial

Sealed

Water-managed with rubber gaskets.

Configuration

Single row parking coverage or dual rows with a back to back carport configuration

Foundation Type

Any (helical piles or screw piles typical, concrete footings is also possible, but more disruptive for the property)

Installation

100% aluminum structure, super light, all parts can be manipulated by hand. Can be assembled without heavy machinery

Panel Height From Ground

Customizable, typically 12-14.5 feet (3.6-4.4m).

Grounding

UL 2703 listed

Typical Bifacial Gains Observed

5-25% (N-Type, on black asphalt. Must be optimized per project, not a guarantee.)

No on-site welding

All Opsun Carports are assembled with bolts and nuts. No welding and no cuts will be necessary on site.

Architectural Design

This architectural solar carport combines high energy generation without compromizing the look of the structure. Using frameless bifacial PVs will add to the elegance of the carport. This structure will blend perfectly in residential as well as light commercial installations.

Peace of Mind Installation

Installing new infrastructures could disturb a propery for a long period of time. Opsun's SunPark Light has been designed to minimize the installation time and operations while avoiding the use of heavy machinery, allowing for a fast and cost effective installation. All parts are aluminum made and can be lifted by hands, while the foundations can be done with the use of helical piles that do not require any excavation work. That's peace of mind!

Perfect for EV Charging Station

The SunPark Light is the perfect match for EV charging stations and complements the green movement of the electrification of transport by enabling a clean generation of the energy required to charge your electric vehicle. Go one step greener by adding the SunPark Light to your EV charging station.

Advantage

IDEAL LOOK WITH BIFACIAL PANELS

Panels encastrable in the aluminum rails, all wires hidden, all junction boxes hidden. Opsun Bifacial Carports take advantage of bifacial panels' transparency to increase aesthetics from underneath.

Ev charging station ready

Fits perfectly the requirements for electric vehicles (EV) charging requirements.

FULL ALUMINUM DESIGN

100% aluminum design with 6000 series aluminum and 304 stainless steel bolts and nuts guarantee maximum durability of the structure for decades.

Better panel protection

Strong rails supporting PVs on their full length help prevent torsion and movement that leads to accelerated degradation of PV panels.

Ease of installation

Light in nature, all parts can be lifter by hand, without heavy machinery. Foundations can be done using screw piles or helical piles to avoid heavy machinery and disrupting the parking activities.

UL 2703

ETL listed to UL 2703

MODULAR CONFIGURATION

The same structure can be adapted to different carport sizes.

HIGHEST STANDARD FOR ENGINEERING & SUPPORT

Our engineers use only the safest methods of calculation, to assure maximum solidity and durability of the structures. We have proprietary, recent wind tunnel tests with Western University, and we design using the latest Building Codes (ASCE-7-16, NBCC 2016, IBC 2018), as well as SEAOC PV2. Minimal deflection allowed on rails, and finite element analysis done with high-end 3D engineering software. Each component and vertical structure calculated individually. We find solutions to each unique challenge, and we react quickly if unforeseen events happen during construction (such as terrain obstructions and last minute changes).

PROJECT-SPECIFIC BUILDING PERMIT PLANS & P.ENG STAMP WITH EACH PROJECT

Custom, project-specific building permit plans, stamped by a local P. Eng., are provided for each job, describing step-by-step where each component goes, on the exact project site, with markups, details and explanations custom to each project's specific difficulties.
