Charge your car and your home
With the transition to electric vehicles, now more than ever it makes sense to power your car from our own clean renewable solar energy source – saving the planet and your fuel bills. What better way than a solar glazed carport. Our unique range of solar carports designed to suit every environment and budget will not only provide a shelter from the weather but can power your car and home.
With NewFrame you can be assured that our innovative technology, advanced engineering and latest architectural designs will add value to your home for many years to come. Our solar glazed carports are capable of generating 3,000kWh of endlessly renewable electricity per year, enough to power the average plug-in electric vehicle for over 12,000 miles a year in the UK. That means free car travel for life.
Combined with battery storage, EV chargers and grid connection our intelligent solar controls can also optimise your power usage and minimise your costs. As leaders in solar-glazed renewable energy Newframe can deliver the full package from design, integration, construction and commissioning, or just the kit for you to self-install.
Newframe offers a range of standard Solar Carport designs as well as bespoke solutions, deploying our unique transparent solar glazed PV glass or conventional solar panels that are ideal for the watertight roof. We also offer integrated EV plugs (from a range of leading manufacturers) as well as integrated smart battery storage, inverters and lighting where required.
Y-Frame Design - Cantilever Structure
Cantilever Structure
Our latest cantilever carport design minimises the structural floorplate to provide easy access and simple installation. Suitable for positioning at the side, front or rear of the property. The carport can be angled to optimise sunlight captured and fit within the site.
Durable Canopy
The carport framework is fabricated from curved tubular carbon steel and is galvanised, and powder coated to ensure a maintenance free life. The solar glazed roof canopy offers a unitised watertight aluminium frame with solar PV laminated glazing panels.
Integrated Systems
The carport structure incorporates both the solar panels and cabling within its frame, as well as the control panel for both the solar electrical grid connection and electric vehicle charging point (EVCP). Providing points. This provides a secure, safe, and aesthetic design to complement your home and car.
Convenient Installation
The carport structure can be installed by our professional team using prefabricated foundations, that minimise disruption and associated ground works costs or can be installed on a preformed concrete bed foundation. In most cases there is no need for trenching or repaving.
Solar PV
Our Y-frame carport design can support our innovative range of solar PV glass technologies to provide a waterproof and translucent roof to the carport. This includes our unique see-through transparent thin-film solar glass panels as well as our mono-crystalline solar cells embedded in a glass laminate that offer various levels of light transmittance.
Specifications
Our standard Y-frame design delivers a canopy of ~15 m² (~4.2m width x ~5.4m Length. Height 2.4m at lowest and 3.5m and highest. 5° degree pitch. Front or rear facing roof. An integrated 7kW EO tethered EV charger is included. Peak power up to 4.2kWp*. Variable bespoke dimensions are available in increments related to standard PV panel sections.
H-Frame Design Solar Carport
Four leg support
This four leg conventional solar glazed carport design offers a slim aesthetic profile that will blend in with most driveways. As a modular self supporting solar canopy structure there are many sizing options available and the structural aluminium roofing can be mounted on bespoke frameworks if required.
Solar PV Roof
The innovative design means all the solar cabling is hidden and protected in the framework. Equally the EV charging ports and inverters can be housed within the framework.
Specifications
Available in gun metal grey the modern design can accommodate our see-through PV glass, as well as semi transparent glass laminate and conventional framed solar panels. The canopy can be attached directly to a building or stand alone.
