Lumos® PowerPort™ is a turnkey 3.42kW solar installation that can be delivered anywhere and setup in a day. This innovative structure provides shade in the summer, protection from snow and rain, and creates electricity. The PowerPort™ is most often installed for use as an automobile carport but can also be used as a pergola, picnic area, or pool side shade structure. Multiple PowerPorts™ can be connected to provide shade or covered parking for a virtually unlimited area - great for commercial, municipal or governments installations.
The steel structure is manufactured from ASTM A500 Grade B steel. The uprights are 5”X5” 11-gauge tubular steel. The cross beams are 2”X6” 3/16”-wall steel. Corner brackets are custom laser cut 1/4” ASTM A36 steel. Mounting feet are 10” x 10” 3/8”-steel plate with 4 pre-drilled anchoring holes. The entire structure is designed to handle critical snow, wind and seismic loads and comes complete with a professional engineering stamp.
The Lumos® PowerPort™ comes complete with 18 Sanyo HIT double-sided HIP-190DA3 solar panels. We use Sanyo bifacial panels because the backside of the panels generate electricity from ambient light that has passed through the panel or is reflected off surrounding surfaces producing up to 30% more power compared to standard one-sided modules. The SMA Sunny Boy inverter is ready for electrical grid interconnection. Local rebates for PV systems may apply (e.g. Colorado Xcel rebate = $11,970, Austin Energy rebate = $15,390, etc.). The Lumos® PowerPort™ is also eligible for the 30% Federal Tax Credit.
