Frequently asked questions
PV carports are an ideal way to generate effective added value with sealed parking spaces. The energy is generated exactly where it is needed: On parking lots. For each parking space, the PV carport generates electricity for up to 17,000 km per car per year. The scalable HELIOS PV carport models from T.Werk are precisely tailored to the requirements of private, commercial and public parking areas.
PV carports protect vehicles from the effects of weather such as hail, heavy rain, heat and snow. They therefore offer real added value for employees and customers and not only enhance the parking area ecologically, but also economically. Thanks to an attractive business model comprising self-consumption and feed-in tariffs, PV carports are a profitable investment. Longevity, unlimited use, minimal maintenance and low operating costs ensure rapid amortization.

Attractive business model through self-consumption and feed-in tariffs
High level of comfort thanks to protection against sunlight, snow, heavy rain and hail
Durable construction enables minimal maintenance
HELIOS: The scalable PV carport.
With our scalable HELIOS PV carports, we always have the right solution for your project. With HELIOS, you can create a single stylish double carport for a private home or a large parking area for a leisure park with several hundred parking spaces. You can also choose between a solid trapezoidal sheet metal covering or a visually appealing glass-glass inlay system.
We offer optional drainage concepts, mounting systems for inverters and charging systems, integrated rooms for technology or as e-bike parking spaces and insect-friendly lighting.
Anchoring in the floor
The substructure is anchored in the ground via a steel-concrete foundation. The foundation is provided by the customer.
Necessity of the soil survey
The ground survey is the responsibility of the customer and is required before construction begins or before the project starts. This ensures that the carports are correctly designed to withstand wind and snow loads.
Standardized façade PV for multi-storey parking lots.
The PV mounting system for parking garage facades from T.Werk can be used as standard for all multi-storey parking lots built with double T-beams. Installation is quick and easy without drilling and screws using a Clamping bracket system. T.Werk remains true to its principle of modular components. The façade PV is mounted using the tried-and-tested ZELOS profiles and CHRONOS clamps, which are also used in the roof area. This creates maximum flexibility for solar installers.
The installation of photovoltaics on parking garage facades offers parking garage operators several advantages:
- Electricity is generated on site and can be used directly
- Operating costs of parking garages are reduced
- Improving the image in the area of sustainability
- Vertical installation reliably generates energy in times of low sunlight
