Solar panel mounting systems are crucial components in any solar PV system, as they provide the structural support needed to securely attach the PV modules to a roof or ground surface. These systems come in a variety of types, including flush mount, ballasted mount, ground mount, pole mount, roof mount, and tracking mount, each with their own unique advantages and suitability for specific situations. Factors such as location, orientation, and building structure must be taken into account when selecting the appropriate solar panel mounting system. Additionally, the angle at which the panels are installed, known as the solar panel angle or tilt, can greatly impact their efficiency. The optimal tilt angle is determined by various factors such as location’s latitude, season, local weather patterns, shading, and building codes.
