Photovoltaic Modules (Solar Panels): These modules generate electricity from sunlight. However, they’re just one part of a complete PV system. Mounting Structures: PV arrays need stable, durable structures that can withstand wind, rain, hail, and corrosion over decades. Rack mounting is common due to its robustness and ease of installation. Ground-mounted systems can use tracking mechanisms to follow the sun for higher energy output. Building-Integrated PV (BIPV) integrates solar panels directly into building materials like roofing or windows, improving efficiency and reducing costs. Inverters: Inverters convert DC electricity from solar panels into AC electricity used for appliances. Systems can have one central inverter or microinverters attached to individual modules.
