Transportable and multi configurable, modular power platforms

Abstract

Platforms for one or more solar panels and systems and methods for securing support platforms include a frame and a plurality of support legs. One or more earth anchors are provided that are driven into the ground such that an exposed end of the anchor extends from the ground. Optionally, the anchor may be pull tested and measured in real time soil conditions whereupon the exposed end is coupled to one of the support legs or other structure of the frame to secure the support platform relative to the ground. Alternatively, a weighted ballast system may be used to secure the platform. Optionally, a reflective membrane may be attached to one or both of the frame and the support legs such that the membrane is supported below the rack for reflecting sunlight to an underside of the one or more solar panels mounted to the rack.
