Imagine a carport that does more than shield your vehicle from hailstorms or scorching sun – it generates clean energy while parked. The A2 Single Row Carport by Goomax Energy isn't just another metal structure; it's a 21st-century energy harvester disguised as everyday infrastructure. With solar integration capabilities rivaling rooftop installations, this system turns "wasted" parking space into a revenue-generating asset. Talk about multitasking architecture!
When Phoenix-based retailer SunMart installed 48 A2 units, their energy bills flipped upside down. The numbers speak volumes:
| Metric | Before Installation | After 12 Months |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly Energy Cost | $8,200 | -$1,150* |
| Carbon Footprint | 38.7 tons CO2 | 6.2 tons CO2 |
*Negative value indicates net metering income
Beyond kilowatt-hours, users report unexpected benefits:
As municipalities implement Green Infrastructure Mandates, the A2 carport becomes compliance gold. Recent developments include:
The latest firmware update enables dynamic energy routing – your carport automatically sells surplus power during peak rates while drawing from batteries when grid prices drop. It's like having a Wall Street trader managing your electrons!
Goomax's patented nano-coated steel alloy combats two persistent issues:
While DIY enthusiasts might eye their toolkits, the A2 system demands professional setup. Key considerations:
As one installer joked, "It's easier to build a Starbucks than wire these smart carports." But once operational, the system practically runs itself – kind of like that college roommate who actually did the dishes.
With Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology maturing, upcoming A2 models will enable your EV to become a mobile power bank. Picture this: Your Ford F-150 Lightning charges under the carport by day, then powers your home during evening rate hikes. The line between vehicle and power plant is blurring faster than a TikTok trend.
As urban planners grapple with land scarcity, dual-purpose structures like the A2 Single Row Carport aren't just smart – they're becoming non-negotiable. After all, why let good sunlight go to waste when it can be parking and producing?

Total renewable energy use was just 1.1% of overall energy use in 1990. This increased to 7.4% in 2018. The electricity sector first overtook the heating and cooling sector in 2005 in terms of total renewable energy use. All EU countries along with Iceland and Norway submitted (NREAPs) to outline the steps taken, and projected progress by each country between 2. The leading renewable sources in the country are biomass, wind, solar and both geothermal and aerothermal power (mostly from ground source and air source heat pumps). [pdf]
A large part of the renewable electricity sold in the Netherlands comes from Norway, a country which generates almost all its electricity from hydropower plants. In the Netherlands, household consumers can choose to buy renewable electricity.
Hydropower, nuclear energy and geothermal energy (heat from deeper than 500m) contribute a limited volume to Dutch energy production: in 2022, nuclear energy produced 4 TWh electricity, hydropower generated 0.05 TWh electricity, and geothermal heat produced 1.7 TWh in heat.
An interesting source of heat recovery used in the Netherlands is sourced from freshly milked milk, or warm milk. However at 0.3% of total renewable energy production (2010 figures) this source is not likely to accelerate energy transition in the country.
People, businesses and organisations will need to switch to smarter and more efficient ways of using energy. Today, fossil fuels such as oil, gas and coal still produce much of the energy that the Netherlands needs for its homes, workplaces and transport. But these fossil fuels are slowly running out and becoming more expensive.
After all, tackling all of the climate change as an individual is pretty daunting, but getting green energy to your own home in the Netherlands doesn’t have to be a hassle, and it can be a great way to contribute to a greener world. So how is the land of a thousand windmills doing in its transition to a low-carbon economy?
The Netherlands is also facing new energy security challenges. Natural gas is the largest source of domestic energy production and a key fuel for industry and for building heating.
