This invention embodies a system and a method for charging electric vehicles comprising, a solar canopy over selected parking spaces, and control equipment and software to maximize the use of solar energy, minimize demand charges and allow for ancillary services to the grid. The capacity of the solar canopy is such that it is capable of providing the energy needed to operate the vehicle both for commuting and for all other uses except for trips over 2-300 miles, as provided by the control software. The system can include features for allowing access only to authorized users, for measuring the amount of energy used by each, and for monthly billing.
