Langan Helps Harness Clean Energy and Generate Savings with Solar Canopies

The real estate maxim of “highest and best use” applies to how we spend our time, effort, and … energy. From corporate and collegiate campuses to hospitals and shopping centers, clients are turning to Langan for due diligence and site planning to transform parking lots from underutilized land into power-generating assets.

Key elements of solar canopy projects include initial engineering feasibility, permitting requirements, geotechnical testing for structural support design, infrastructure design, traffic planning, and GIS/survey. Langan’s multidisciplinary approach from the onset of a project helps to streamline the design process of these facilities.

“Clients seeking solar development on their parking lots benefit from Langan’s integrated services and national reach,” said Christine Yeatman, Senior Project Manager, Langan. “Typically, once we support a specific project in one location, the client retains Langan on other sites nearby and across the country.”

With close to 50 locations nationwide, Langan’s land development teams seamlessly collaborate in support of numerous solar developments. Importantly, universities and healthcare systems realize significant savings by putting power back into the grid, which allows them to dedicate more budget to facilities for students, faculty, doctors, nurses, and patients.
