Nucor Solar Structures

Nucor Steel's Building Group offers two types of solar structures.

1. Elevated Solar Panel Structures:

Nucor Building Group offers custom-engineered elevated steel structures designed to support solar panels used in all types of applications. These solar support structures are an optimal solution for parking garages, solar farms, carports, canopies, charging stations, ground-mounted systems, and roof mounts.
With Nucor Buildings Group, you are ensured product availability, the most technologically advanced design capability, unsurpassed durability, fewer maintenance issues, and affordable customization.
Businesses across the country are taking advantage of the power the sun offers by installing solar parking lots. Solar panel systems are an efficient use of space, bringing shade and clean energy to your building or parking lot.

With the practical and climate benefits, solar power offers, it makes sense to incorporate solar panel structures into your business.

2. Nucor Building Group "Powershingle" Solar Roof Panels:

PowerShingle is an innovative system that features solar panels that serve as the roof of your structure. Mounted on a steel structure, the panels lock together with a slight overlap, eliminating leakage and providing full protection to the valuable assets stored beneath.
Beautiful, Natural Light. Manufactured with over 90% recycled American steel, PowerShingle's bifacial construction gathers sunlight from both sides, creating maximum power generation and allowing beautiful, natural light to pass through.
Maximize Energy Production with No Roof Leakage. PowerShingle solar panels naturally shed water, creating a clean, dry space with unparalleled energy density. Traditional solar structures leak water, but the revolutionary watershed design of PowerShingle eliminates leakage and creates a space that can be used for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications.

Costly Sub-Roofing is Eliminated. The unique watershed design eliminates the need for costly sub-roofing typically required to weatherproof conventional solar systems. Backed by a 25-year, industry-leading warranty, PowerShingle provides clean energy you can depend on.
Steel Structure Spans Can Exceed 100′. This unique, green, structural solution can be customized to your needs, with span capabilities exceeding 100′. Dirty water is carried away as water sheets down the panels into rain gutters, helping to protect the items stored beneath. Imagine the energy independence with elevated solar racking that can transition into almost any useful structure.
