Solar in an
everyday space.
At this Brisbane home, a VELA double carport sits alongside the existing house and garden, using the driveway for both parking and solar roofing.
The VELA system uses a 6005-T5 aluminium frame with galvanised carbon steel bases. Its integrated Polaris solar roof brings generation and weather protection into the same footprint.
