Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, an intelligent solar racking system (102) is provided. The intelligent solar racking system includes a racking frame (110) that receives and mechanically supports solar modules (105). The intelligent solar racking system includes sensors (136, 139, 140) distributed throughout the racking frame. Each of the sensors detects and reports parameter data by generating output signals. The sensors include module sensors positioned to associate with each of the solar modules and detect a module presence as the parameter data for the solar modules. The intelligent solar racking system includes a computing device (305) that receives, stores, and analyzes the output signals to determine and monitor operations of the intelligent solar racking system.

Abstract: A solar module racking system (100) including a frame (110). The frame includes pre-wired receptacles for rapid assembly of solar modules (105). The frame receives and mechanically supports each solar module. The frame arranges the solar modules in a first planar direction, in a second planar direction, and in a vertical direction that is normal to the first and second planar directions. Each pre-wired receptacles individually and electrically connect each of the solar modules after insertion of that module into the frame. The solar module racking system provides a 2 by 1 by 1 configuration or a 1 by 2 by 1 configuration for the plurality of solar modules corresponding to the first planar direction, the second planar direction, and the vertical direction. A first module and a second module are arranged in the first planar direction or the second planar direction, respectively.

Abstract: A device (200) is provided. The device includes mechanically stacked layers. The mechanically stacked layers include a bottom layer (230) and upper layers (210, 211). Each upper layer includes a transmissive solar cell (214) that converts light energy into electricity. Each upper layer transmits unconverted portions of the light energy towards the bottom layer. The bottom layer includes a solar cell that converts the unconverted portions of the light energy into electricity.

Abstract: A system is provided. The system includes a thin film. The thin film includes a first material that absorbs light within a first band gap and passes a remaining portion of the light that is outside of the first band gap. The thin film is electrically connected to an intermediate electrical device. The thin film converts the light within the first band gap to electricity. The thin film provides the electricity to the intermediate electrical device. The system includes a solar panel that includes a second material that absorbs the remaining portion of the light passed by the thin film. The solar panel includes c-Si. The system includes a coupling between the solar panel and the thin film.
