SCHLETTER Sunride
THE MODULAR CARPORT SYSTEM
SunRide, Schletter‘s modular solar carport system, offers reliable protection against solar radiation, snow, rain, and hail, while generating clean electricity for self-consumption and electric vehicle charging — a win-win solution. With rising electricity costs, the SunRide carport provides free and sustainable electricity for years after the initial investment, ensuring planning security.
In addition, in many German states, carports are now mandatory for parking spaces of 35 or more.
Independence from rising electricity costs
Production of renewable energy on already sealed parking areas
Advantages in energy balance certification of buildings
Greater comfort thanks to snow free parking in winter
Cool, shady parking in summer
Loading and unloading of the vehicles in dry conditions when it rains
Charging station and energy provider for electric bicycle/scooter or car
Fit for energy and mobility of the future
Feed-in tariff according to German renewable energy law (EEG)
SUSTAINABLE AND RELIABLE PLANNING
THE IDEAL COMPLEMENT TO THE SOLAR ROOF
Especially on company roofs, photovoltaic systems are a welcome measure. However, the roof surfaces are often too small or simply unsuitable to be able to decisively improve the energy balance. Solar carports are the ideal supplement or alternative for the large-scale use of photovoltaic power generation.
Electricity costs will continue to rise. But the SunRide carport will provide you with free and sustainable electricity for years after the investment phase is over. This gives you planning security. Invest in the future and in an independent power supply with affordable energy.

INDIVIDUAL AND EFFICIENT
MODULAR SYSTEM FOR JUST THE RIGHT SOLUTION
Each unit is configured individually according to the customer’s requirements based on the selected basic design using the following parameters:
- Module type and design
- System size
- Terrain conditions
- Column spacing or parking space layout
Numerous extensions can be additionally planned on site (e.g., effective drainage systems, cable routing, inverter mounts, and advertising spaces)

DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA
Stability:
| Cost optimization:
| Design/sustainability:
|
MATERIAL
- High life expectancy
- Hot-dip galvanized in accordance with corrosion protection class C3
- Structurally optimized and cost-efficient overall design
- Roof pitch is economically optimized for solar yield and material use for construction
LOGISTICS
- Fast and easy mounting
- Maximum degree of prefabrication
- Ready pre-planned and prefabricated to the construction site
- Optimized pre-planning for the least possible business interruption during the construction phase
- Can be mounted with conventional means of transport and lifting equipment
ACCESSORIES
- Cable management, cable guides
- Components for lightning protection and potential equalization
- Clamps for different types of modules
- Can be planned on-site: lightning protection system, drainage, inverter attachments, advertising space, lighting, and much more
Note: Depending on the design, the danger from sliding snow masses may have to be taken into account during planning. Accessories for minimizing snow slippage are available on request. Depending on the orientation, shading of the modules may occur.
PERFORMANCE AND SERVICE
- Support during project planning
- Documentation in the form of system drawings
- Manufacture and delivery of the entire carport system
- Structural analysis
- Project-specific adaptations possible on request
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
- Individual structural analysis of the system based on regional load values
- Loading assumptions according to DIN EN 1990 (Eurocode 0), DIN EN 1991 (Eurocode 1), DIN EN 1993 (Eurocode 3) and other or corresponding country-specific standards
- Profile geometries with best possible material utilization for maximum cost efficiency
- Verification of all construction components on the basis of FEM calculation
- Optional: vibration simulations for wind loading
- Optional: earthquake simulation
CONSTRUCTION
- For both framed and frameless modules
- Single row parking arrangement with end support
- Double row parking arrangement with central support
- Suitable for both inclined parking spaces and straight parking spaces thanks to the single-support principle
- Because of the roof pitch of 10°, a south or east-west orientation can be implemented depending on the parking situation
- The covered carport depth is 5 m
- The total length of a carport can be up to 50 m
