Elevated Structures

Raised steel or aluminium structures that generate power while providing shade for the space underneath.

What It Is
Elevated solar structure providing shade below

Solar mounted above usable space, not instead of it.

Elevated structures raise panels on steel or aluminium frames above parking areas, lawns, walkways, or industrial yards — useful when roof space is limited, shaded, structurally unsuitable, or when you want the panels to double as shade or cover.

Structural Considerations

What goes into a safe elevated structure.

Wind Load

Frames engineered and rated for local wind conditions, not a generic spec.

Foundation Type

Foundation sized to the structure's height, span, and the ground it sits on.

Clearance Height

Set to fit vehicles, equipment, or foot traffic passing underneath.

Corrosion Protection

Coated or galvanized steel/aluminium for long-term outdoor exposure.

Elevated solar structure framing and guard rails
FAQs

Common questions about elevated structures.

Is an elevated structure more expensive than a rooftop mount?

Generally yes, since it requires its own steel/aluminium framing and foundation rather than using existing roof structure. The trade-off is usable space underneath and freedom from roof constraints.

How much clearance height do I need?

It depends on what's underneath — vehicle parking, walkways, or equipment yards each have different clearance requirements. We size this during the site survey.

Can it be built over an existing car park without disrupting use?

Yes, this is one of the most common applications. Construction is phased to minimize disruption, and we can discuss sequencing during planning.

What's the expected lifespan of the structure?

With corrosion-resistant coated or galvanized framing, elevated structures are built for long-term outdoor exposure, in line with the working life of the solar system itself.
