Ground Mount
High-profile orientation maximizes module density at your site. Choose tilt angle based on geographic location.
Roof Mount
Low-profile orientation minimizes the vertical height of your array. For example, array can be discreetly positioned behind a parapet.
Roof Mount
SolarMount can also be custom configured to solve virtually any PV mounting challenge. Custom awnings were developed by our engineers for this residential application.
Open Structure
SolarMount was used to construct this custom carport open structure, intelligently turning real estate into an energy-making opportunity.

Case Study


Case Study: The Solar Wall, Wales

SolarMount solved two problems faced by designers of the Solar Wall at the Welsh Development Agency Technology Center in St. Asaph, North Wales. It allowed clear ventilation behind the panels, minimizing operating temperatures and thus maximizing output. SolarMount bottom-mounting clips also secured PV modules from behind, giving the array a smooth external finish.
