Abstract
Example electric solar canopy systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a foundation is positioned on a surface. A table is configured to secure multiple solar panels. A lifting mechanism is coupled to the foundation and the table, where the lifting mechanism is configured to move the table between a lowered position and a raised position.
Claims5
A method comprising:
- positioning a foundation on a surface by at least one user at an installation site, wherein the foundation is a unitary structure;
- attaching a lifting mechanism to the foundation by at least one user standing on the surface at the installation site;
- attaching a table to the top of the lifting mechanism by at least one user standing on the surface at the installation site, wherein the table includes a plurality of edges;
- attaching a plurality of solar panels to the table at the installation site;
- and
- raising, by at least one user standing on the surface, the table and the attached solar panels from a lowered position to a raised position using the lifting mechanism, wherein raising the table from the lowered position to the raised position moves all of the plurality of edges.
