A mounting structure, also known as a solar panel mount or solar mounting system, is a type of support structure that holds solar panels in place. It is an essential part of the solar energy system, and it provides stability, protection, and the right orientation to the solar panels to maximize their energy production. It is worth mentioning that compared with the price of photovoltaic panels, the cost of the bracket in the whole system is not high, even if the bracket can be recycled and sold after many years of use, and the recycling rate is very high. Depending on the installation location and requirements, there are several installation methods and types of solar panels. Here are some common methods:

✦ Ground mounting system: Solar panels are installed on the ground, usually in open areas such as fields or solar farms. The ground-mounted system provides flexibility in the direction of the panel and can be adjusted for optimal sun exposure.

Common types include:

1. Fixed Tilt Mount: The panel is fixed at a specific angle and direction of inclination.

2. Single-axis tracking bracket: The panel tracks the movement of the sun along one axis (usually east-west) throughout the day.

3. Dual-axis tracking bracket: The panel tracks the movement of the sun along the horizontal and vertical axes, maximizing energy production.

✦ Roof mounting system: The solar panels are installed directly on the roof. The installation structure of a rooftop mounting system can be divided into three main types:

1. Recessed mounting: The panels are mounted parallel to the roof surface, making them less visible, but often less efficient due to potential shading.

2. Tilt Installation: The panels are tilted at an angle to improve sunlight exposure and maximize energy production. The tilt angle is optimized according to the latitude of the geographic location.

3. Integrated Installation: The panels are integrated into the roofing material itself, providing a more aesthetically pleasing and seamless appearance.

✦ Pole mounting system: The solar panel is mounted on a single pole or multiple poles, usually for off-grid installation or remote areas.

The choice of installation structure depends on factors such as available space, orientation, budget, and specific project requirements. Local building codes, wind loads, snow loads, and structural integrity must be considered when selecting and installing a solar panel mounting system. It is advisable to consult with a professional solar installer or engineer to provide the most suitable installation solution for your solar panel installation.The building contractors, bracket wholesalers warmly welcomed to contact us to design your project.
