why invest in solar carports now?

Electricity demand is surging, and costs are going with it. More than 70% of the grid is over 25 years old, and new power sources take decades to bring online.

Distributed solar carports can unlock gigawatts of capacity in mere months. You gain control over energy cost, reduce exposure to outages and generate revenue from space that today costs money. And nobody has more experience than Baja Carports making it happen.
