RACKING SYSTEM FOR SUPPORTING PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE MOUNTING AND METHODS OF ITS USE

摘要

Racking systems for supporting a photovoltaic module are provided. The racking system includes a support lip; a lower retaining wall substantially oriented in a retaining plane and extending from the lower retaining wall; a lower support wall substantially oriented in a support plane and positioned on an opposite side of the lower retaining wall than the support lip; and an upper support wall substantially oriented in the support plane. The lower retaining wall and the lower support wall are joined together by a resting rail to define a retaining groove therebetween. Methods are also provided for mounting a photovoltaic module onto a racking system.
