Claims15
A cluster of modular solar skids comprising:
- a plurality of modular solar skids comprising:
- a first solar skid including a first battery enclosure and a primary electronics enclosure, wherein the first battery enclosure houses a first plurality of batteries and the primary electronics enclosure houses control electronics;
- a second solar skid in electrical communication with the first solar skid, the second solar skid including a second battery enclosure and a secondary electronics enclosure, wherein the second battery enclosure houses a second plurality of batteries and the secondary electronics enclosure houses no control electronics, wherein the second battery enclosure is larger than the first battery enclosure and the second plurality of batteries is greater than the first plurality of batteries, and wherein the secondary electronics enclosure is smaller than the primary electronics enclosure;
- and
- a plurality of third solar skids in electrical communication with the first solar skid, each of the plurality of third solar skids including a ballast enclosure housing a ballast material therein,
- wherein functionality of the second solar skid and the plurality of third solar skids is controlled by the control electronics in the first solar skid, wherein the first solar skid and the second solar skid have the same footprint.
