Utility Carport System
UT-Gen I
The SFUSA UT-Gen I Carport is the ideal hybrid solar racking solution for residential projects. Solar Foundations’ versatile fixed-tilt structure can be elevated to serve as a carport, utility storage structure, or as a general canopy. Our durable design permits the elevated system to be installed on uneven ground or in areas that have minor slopes over the entire width of the structure. The existing material and equipment used for the SFUSA Ground Mount structure are also employed for the SFUSA UT-Gen I Carport, allowing Solar Foundations’ installation crews to install the carport system quickly and efficiently. Depending on the desired configuration, the SFUSA UT-Gen I Carport provides a minimum clearance height of approximately 8ft at the south edge of the array.

The solar modules act as the carport roof. While this provides the desired shading and significant protection from rain, the system is not intended to be waterproof. Thus, the utility carport does allow some water and sunlight to pass through the small gaps between the panels.
