Nico Lugt, managing director and CEO of Sunergic states, “We are confident we have been appointed as contractor thanks to the innovative technical solution offered by Giulio Barbieri, which allows for the possibility to adapt into the carport any brand and size of PV module. Last but not least, the care of design, even in the accessories (such as the internal protection ceiling), are perfectly water-tight: it's the details that make the difference!”
