Why It Works

When the roof
won’t cooperate.

Not every home has an ideal roof for solar. Orientation, shading, heritage rules or roof condition can all get in the way. A solar carport sidesteps all of that: a purpose-built structure you can orient correctly, over the driveway you already have, charging an EV at the same time.

Cost & Savings

What it costs,
what it saves.

Pricing depends on the number of bays, EV charging, and whether battery storage is added. Small-scale technology certificates (STCs) reduce the up-front cost, and self-generated power plus EV charging drive the payback.

FAQ

Home solar carport questions.

How much does a residential solar carport cost?
Cost depends on whether it is a single or double bay, EV charging, battery storage and your site. Small-scale technology certificates (STCs) lower the up-front price, and we provide an accurate quote after a free site assessment in Canberra, the ACT and South Coast NSW.
Is a solar carport worth it for my home?
If your roof faces the wrong way, is shaded, heritage-listed or simply full, a carport puts the panels where they actually work while shading your vehicles and supporting EV charging. For many homes it is the better option.
Can I charge my EV from a solar carport?
Yes. We can integrate EV charging so you charge from your own solar, with optional battery storage so you can charge day or night.
Do I need council approval for a home solar carport?
It depends on the structure’s size and where it sits on your block. We assess approval requirements during design and handle the process where needed.
How long does installation take?
Most residential carports are installed quickly once the design is finalised and any approval is in place. You get a clear timeframe with your quote.
What warranty do you get?
A 25-year manufacturer’s structural warranty on the NOVA system, plus a 10-year workmanship warranty on the installation from Meta Electrical & Solar.
