2. Photovoltaic mounting system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_mounting_system

   If the roof is already constructed, it is relatively easy to retrofit panels directly on top of existing roofing structures. For a small minority of roofs (often not built to code) that are designed so that it is capable of bearing only the weight of the roof, installing solar panels demands that the roof structure must be strengthened beforehand.

3. Rooftop solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooftop_solar_power

   The front of a solar panel is very durable whereas the back of a panel is generally more vulnerable. Mounting clamps generally consist of aluminum brackets and stainless steel bolts that secure solar panels to one another on the roof and onto the rails. Clamps often vary in design in order to account for various roof and rail configurations ...

4. Solar shingle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_shingle

   Tesla Solar Roof. Solar shingles, also called photovoltaic shingles, are solar panels designed to look like and function as conventional roofing materials, such as asphalt shingle or slate, while also producing electricity. Solar shingles are a type of solar energy solution known as building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV).

   Roof Gnome compared U.S. cities on the solar viability of their roofs, potential solar energy production, and projected financial and environmental impact to rank the best locations for 2024.

6. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   A solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. PV cells are made of materials that produce excited electrons when exposed to light. These electrons flow through a circuit and produce direct current (DC) electricity, which can be used to power various devices or be stored in batteries.

7. Passive solar building design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_solar_building_design

   A roof pond passive solar system, sometimes called a solar roof, uses water stored on the roof to temper hot and cold internal temperatures, usually in desert environments. It typically is constructed of containers holding 6 to 12 in (150 to 300 mm) of water on a flat roof.
