The system may further include at least one clamp configured for securing at least one solar module to the adhesion sheet.
Claims20
A solar module mounting system, comprising:
- an adhesion sheet configured to be secured to a roof of a structure via an adhesive and without penetrating the roof, the adhesion sheet including at least one insert configured to be positioned adjacent the roof and to receive an attachment device;
- and
- a clamp configured to:
- secure at least one solar module;
- and
- couple to the adhesion sheet via the insert and the attachment device without penetrating the roof;
- the adhesion sheet having at least one of a length or a width of at least 50% of an associated dimension of the at least one solar module.
4 more elements
A solar module mounting system, comprising:
- an adhesion sheet configured to be secured to a structure without penetrating the structure;
- at least one clamp coupled to the adhesion sheet and configured to secure a solar module to the adhesion sheet;
- and
- at least one standoff coupled to the at least one clamp and configured to be positioned between the adhesion sheet and the solar module.
1 more element
A solar module mounting system, comprising:
- an adhesion sheet having a first surface configured to be secured to a structure;
- and
- one or more standoffs adjacent a second, opposite surface of the adhesion sheet, each standoff of the one or more standoffs configured to couple to an internal area of side of a solar module via an adhesive.
