Installing Terranean-Based Systems

A mobile apparatus for installing solar energy system components, comprising:

• a mobile vehicle operable to traverse a terranean surface;
• one or more installers mounted to the mobile vehicle, each installer configured to move in at least two degrees of freedom relative to the terranean surface and install one or more components of a solar energy system;
• a power module coupled to the one or more installers, the power module configured to provide operating power to the one or more installers;
• and
• a computer module comprising:
• a memory comprising a component installation module;
• and
• one or more processors operable to execute the component installation module, the component installation module operable when executed to:
• direct the mobile vehicle to a macro-position of a location on the terranean surface suitable for installation of the solar energy system;
• at the macro-position of the location, adjust at least one of the installers to a micro-position of the location within the macro-position;
• and
• direct an operation of the adjusted installer to install a component of the solar energy system at the micro-position of the location.
