Added value through parking lot PV: Photovoltaic roofing on parking lots has been mandatory in parts of Germany since 2022. Environmentally friendly solar energy can be generated over sealed surfaces of parking lots. A nationwide installation of PV systems on parking lots in Germany would correspond to a potential of 59 GWp capacity. This means that parking lot PV alone could cover the electricity needs of more than 17.2 million households. What are the concrete advantages of parking lot PV? What are the technical requirements for planning and installation? And what about the economic viability?
We talk about this with Antonia Gordt, Project Manager at Solar Cluster Baden-Württemberg e.V. and Jens Ritter, Sales Manager at ClickCon GmbH & Co. KG.
