Turn Open Space Into Income-Producing Power

Your land, parking lot, or farm structure should do more than sit there.

With a professionally designed solar structure, you can:

• Generate renewable energy on unused land
• Offset high agricultural or commercial electric bills
• Create shaded parking or covered storage
• Increase property value
• Qualify for agricultural and commercial incentives

At Express Connection, we design and fabricate custom solar structures in Fresno and the Central Valley built for performance, durability, and long-term savings.

Custom Solar Structures Built for Your Needs

Not all properties are built the same. That’s why every structure we design is engineered around:

• Your energy usage
• Your land or parking layout
• Local building codes in Fresno County
• Wind load and weather requirements
• Future battery storage integration

We fabricate and install:

• Solar carports for parking garages
• Agricultural solar barns and sheds
• Solar canopies
• Ground-mounted solar systems
• Elevated solar structures with covered storage
• Solar structures with EV charging station integration

Whether you need a simple ground mount solar system or a fully engineered elevated solar canopy, we build structures that last for decades.

Agricultural Solar Structures for Fresno & Central Valley Farms

Energy costs hit farmers hard.

Irrigation pumps, cold storage, barns, and processing equipment drive up electricity usage — especially in peak seasons.

Our agricultural solar structures in Fresno, CA help farmers:

• Reduce long-term operational costs
• Build functional barns, sheds, or covered equipment storage
• Take advantage of available agricultural solar incentives
• Add battery storage for additional savings and backup power

Instead of building a barn that only stores equipment, build one that generates power too.

Solar becomes both infrastructure and income protection.

Commercial Solar Carports & Canopies

Parking lots are untapped assets.

With a solar carport installation, businesses can:

• Provide shaded parking for customers and employees
• Offset commercial electricity costs
• Add EV charging capabilities
• Improve sustainability branding
• Reduce peak demand charges when paired with battery storage

Our commercial solar structures in Fresno are engineered for safety, structural integrity, and maximum solar production.

Designed for Long-Term Performance

We don’t just install panels on steel.

We design complete solar structural systems that:

• Integrate seamlessly with solar panels and inverters
• Allow future battery storage expansion
• Meet California structural and permitting standards
• Withstand Central Valley heat and environmental conditions

Our team manages engineering, fabrication, and installation — simplifying what could otherwise be a complex project.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a solar structure?

A solar structure is a purpose-built framework designed to support solar panels. This includes solar carports, ground-mounted systems, agricultural barns with solar roofing, and elevated canopies that generate electricity while providing usable space below.

Are solar carports worth it in Fresno?

With high commercial electricity rates and abundant sunshine in Fresno, solar carports can significantly reduce operating costs while improving property value and customer experience.

Can agricultural buildings qualify for incentives?

Yes. Many agricultural properties may qualify for federal tax credits and other renewable energy incentives when installing qualifying solar systems. Incentives can apply whether solar is installed on barns, sheds, or custom agricultural structures.

Can I add battery storage to a solar structure?

Absolutely. Solar structures can be designed to integrate with battery storage systems, allowing you to store excess energy, reduce peak utility costs, and maintain power during outages.

How long do solar structures last?

Properly engineered solar structures are built for decades of use. Materials and structural design are selected to withstand weather, heat, and long-term exposure common in the Central Valley.
