The Role Of Photovoltaic (PV) Mounts in The Photovoltaic Industry

Photovoltaic (PV) mounts are the "skeleton" of PV power plants, with their core function being to support and secure PV modules, ensuring the safe, stable, and efficient operation of the system throughout its 25-year lifespan. They not only affect the structural safety of the power plant, but also directly relate to power generation efficiency and investment returns.

The main function of photovoltaic (PV) supports is:
Support and fix photovoltaic modules
The bracket provides a stable installation foundation for photovoltaic panels, effectively resisting extreme weather conditions such as wind pressure, snow pressure, earthquakes, and hail, preventing component detachment or damage, and ensuring the safety of the power station.

Improve power generation efficiency

By adjusting the inclination and azimuth angles of the components, they can maximize the reception of solar radiation.
The tracking bracket can automatically adjust its angle according to the movement of the sun, resulting in a 10% to 30% increase in power generation compared to a fixed bracket.
The flat single-axis tracking bracket is particularly suitable for regions with abundant light resources, significantly enhancing power generation per unit area.
Adapt to diverse application scenarios

Ground-mounted solar power station: Fixed or tracking brackets are used, and the foundation is designed based on geological conditions (such as screw piles and concrete).
Roof-top solar power station: Utilizes lightweight aluminum alloy brackets to avoid damaging the building structure.
Agriculture-Photovoltaic Complementation/Fishing-Photovoltaic Complementation: High-support design, enabling "power generation above and farming/aquaculture below", thereby enhancing the comprehensive utilization value of land.
Extend system lifespan
Constructed from zinc-aluminum-magnesium, hot-dip galvanized steel, or aluminum alloy, it boasts excellent corrosion resistance and can withstand long-term use in harsh environments such as high humidity and salt spray. Some of the brackets have a lifespan of over 30 years.

Reduce system costs and construction difficulty
Modular design facilitates installation, reducing labor and time costs; material optimization (such as high-strength steel, lightweight design) balances cost and durability.

Support intelligent operation and maintenance and security protection
The support system can integrate lightning protection and grounding, as well as wind engineering optimization design, and reserve passageways for future cleaning and maintenance, enhancing operational and maintenance convenience.
