Solar PV panels for garages, carports and outbuildings
Solar PV panels for garages, carports, and outbuildings
Unlock extra clean energy from your outbuildings!
From garages and carports to storage buildings, UK Eco Energy Solutions installs high-performance solar systems that save you money and cut carbon.
Why fit solar on garages?
Garages, carports and other outbuildings are often ideal for extra solar generation — they get good, unobstructed roof space and can power lighting, workshops, EV chargers and feed surplus energy back to the home. Installing PV on outbuildings is a cost-effective way to increase your household’s energy independence without changing the main roof.
Is my garage/carport suitable for solar?
✔ Roof orientation and pitch: south-facing and 15°–40° are ideal.
✔ Roof condition and structure: sound substrate or rafter reinforcement if needed.
✔ Shading: check trees, neighbouring buildings, chimneys.
✔ Electrical route to your home’s consumer unit: distance affects cost.
✔ Planning and building regs: usually permitted development for domestic PV, but we’ll advise locally.
Typical install options for outbuildings
✔ Roof-mounted panels: standard approach for garages & pitched carport roofs.
✔ Frame-mounted / canopy carport systems:great for flat-topped or metal carports.
✔ Ground-penetrated / integrated micro-inverters: when distance to main panel is large, we recommend micro-inverters or string inverters with optimised cable runs.
✔ Battery-ready setups: make the most of midday generation and power your outbuilding loads after dark.
