Aesthetical
This architectural solar canopy combines high energy generation without compromizing the look of the structure. Using frameless bifacial PVs will add to the elegance of the canopy and will blend perfectly in residential as well as light commercial installations.
Ease of installation
Light in nature, all parts can be lifted by hand, without heavy machinery. Foundations can be done using screw piles or helical piles to avoid heavy machinery and disrupting the property.
Perfect for Solar Pergolas
Protection from the sun while enjoying a nice day in the garden is what you wish for during a hot summer day. But why not also turn this heat into energy and make your pergola turn from an expense into an investment? Opsun's SunPark Canopy does it all!

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.
