When we began designing and developing solar panel mounting structures a few years ago, it quickly became clear that the field required a much more complex approach than we had initially anticipated. Successfully installing solar panel systems demands not only engineering expertise but also a comprehensive understanding of the related ecosystem and operational processes.
In recent years, numerous storm-related damages and high-value insurance claims have caused significant losses in solar parks, carports, and other ground-mounted structures. This growing challenge has driven us to adopt a new approach in developing safe, sustainable, and flexibly expandable solar energy systems.

To develop effective solutions, a multidisciplinary approach and the coordinated work of experts from various fields were essential. The development processes incorporated modern methodologies such as Design Thinking, Lean Startup, Business Model Canvas, and Agile Scrum. These approaches enabled us to focus not only on individual problems but on the entire system as a whole.
Multidisciplinary Team and Innovative Tools
Our team consists of experts from various fields, including human consultants, a plant doctor, an industrial designer, an architectural and urban planner, a structural engineer, an electrical engineer, a logistician, a manufacturing technologist, a software developer, and a financial manager. With their knowledge and experience, we have successfully developed systems that are not only safe but also sustainable and scalable.
During the design process, we use various modern software tools, including:
Autodesk Architecture Engineering
Autodesk Product Design
Docs for AEC Collection
Structural sizing and storm simulation software
Geolocation-based solar energy irradiation and performance planning software
These software solutions allow us to accurately model system operations and identify potential issues early in the design phase. We place special emphasis on storm simulations and structural sizing to prevent potential damage and ensure the long-term stability of the system.
Integrating sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) considerations into the design process has been a key priority for us.
The following objectives were set during the development process:
Integration of Green Vegetation: The incorporation of green vegetation into structural frameworks and carports not only enhances aesthetic value but also contributes to maintaining the local ecosystem.
Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure: In line with the growing adoption of electric vehicles, we have developed charging stations that utilize solar energy to increase energy independence.
CO2 Reduction: Our systems aim to reduce CO2 emissions and minimize environmental impact.
Rainwater Collection and Recycling: Capturing and utilizing rainwater represents another step toward sustainability.
Digitalization: Through digitalization, we ensure more accurate monitoring and management of system operations.
Future-Proof Investments: Our systems are designed for long-term operation and continuous development, ensuring a high return on investment.
Development of a Complex Ecosystem: A system-based approach that allows for connectivity with external systems, whether in energy management or environmental sustainability. Our solutions are scalable for small, medium, and high-power consumption systems, ranging from smart homes to power plant informatics.
ESG Compliance: Our solutions are designed to align with ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) standards, ensuring integration into sustainability and environmental reports.
For example, when designing a carport in an area with high insurance risk, our design methods allow us to minimize potential storm damage while ensuring the flexibility and scalability of the system. The solutions we have developed not only address current challenges but also ensure the long-term sustainability of the system with a forward-thinking approach.
When designing solar panel support structures and their related ecosystems, a traditional engineering approach alone is not sufficient. The integration of system developments, a multidisciplinary approach, and the use of modern software tools all contribute to the creation of complex solutions that meet both present-day demands and future requirements. The result is a safe, sustainable, and efficient solar energy system that minimizes insurance risks and contributes to energy independence.
