How We Approach Solar Projects
Our approach to every solar project begins with a solar audit. Our team will go to you and perform an on-site survey of the building and location or off-site modeling. Our survey teams measure the patterns of sunlit and shaded areas and analyze the building’s current energy consumption. After obtaining all the data we need, we’ll assess the best approach to integrating the solar energy system with your existing electrical infrastructure and estimate how much solar-generated electricity your building can generate.
Solar PV Applications
Douglass Colony’s solar experts can help with every aspect of your project. Below is an overview of our solar services.
Roof Mounted PV
Roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) panels are solar panels installed on the roof of a building to generate electricity. These panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity, which can be used to power a home or business.
Benefits of Roof-Mounted PV:
- They are space-efficient and can be installed on small roofs.
- They are a good choice for urban areas where ground space is limited.
- They can be installed on residential or commercial buildings.
- They are environmentally friendly.
Carport/Canopy PV
A carport/Canopy PV solar is a parking structure that uses photovoltaic panels to generate solar energy while providing shade. It works by attaching solar panels to a canopy, which can be assembled in many places, including parking lots, offices, and farms. The solar panels generate clean energy that can be used to reduce energy and carbon emissions. These canopies also provide shade and protection for vehicles.
Benefits of Carport/Canopy PV:
- Reduction of energy bills.
- Reduction of carbon emissions.
- Support of sustainable measures.
Ground Mount PV
Ground Mount PV Solar Panels are solar panels that are installed on a structure, rather than the roof, such as a pole or metal frame, that is anchored to the ground.
Benefits of Ground Mount PV:
- Can be positioned to maximize sun exposure, which can increase energy production.
- They are easier to access for maintenance and cleaning, which can improve efficiency.
- Better airflow than roof-mounted panels, which can improve performance.
- Can be installed in open areas to avoid shading from trees and buildings.
- Can be installed on a variety of land types, including properties with suitable roofs.
Custom PV Awnings
Custom PV Awnings, also known as solar awnings or photovoltaic canopies are structures that provide shade and generate solar power. These awnings can be attached to the side of a building or installed as a standalone structure.
How They Work:
- Solar Panels are attached to the awning which generates clean energy.
- The awning provides shade for windows, walkways, and entrances.
- The awning can protect against rain, snow, and ice.
