摘要： In one or more arrangements a system, method, and bracket assembly for installing photovoltaic panels is presented. The system includes one or more photovoltaic panels and a support structure to mount the photovoltaic panels on and one or more bracket assemblies. The bracket assembly includes a first section, a second section, and a living hinge operably connecting the first section and the second section. The living hinge is configured to move the first section and the second section between an unclamped position, where first section and second section are positioned at a greater angle with respect to each other, and a clamped position, where first section and second section are positioned at a lesser angle with respect to each other to secure the photovoltaic panel to the support structure. The brackets may self-square the photovoltaic panel to the cross bar when the bracket is clamped.

摘要： The present disclosure provides a self-ballasted, pre-engineered modular platform for deployable solar installations including one or more photovoltaic modules, one or more tables to support the photovoltaic modules, one or more reflectors, and a base configured to support the one or more reflectors at a first position proximate a ground surface, and to support the one or more tables at an elevated relative to the one or more reflectors. In some examples, multiple modular platforms may be connected to provide a single electrical output. In some examples, the modular platform is assembled onsite for generating electricity with bifacial photovoltaic modules.

摘要： Edge blocks for a PV array comprising fastener or component holes for anchoring the array bonding the array and protecting array cabling. Edge blocks provide a favorable aerodynamic shape to help deflect incoming wind, the channel rainwater and to protect edge of the array. Methods having steps of placing modules contacting native topography or a smoothed or substantially flat portion of the ground in an array and holding the array together and down are also disclosed.

摘要： Devices for anchoring one or more solar panels are described. The devices include a container configured to receive ballast material to provide increased mass for anchoring one or more solar panels to a ground surface. The container also includes a solar panel connection system for securing one or more solar panels to the container and may support various additional features providing enhanced stability and protection of other solar array components. The devices may be used in combination with other solar panel support structures to create extended solar panel assemblies which may include additional energy collection features.
