FLOATING PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM
A floating photovoltaic (PV) system that has a float and at least one PV module. The float is made of two layers, a lower water-permeable layer and an upper water-non-permeable layer. The two layers are held together in a stack configuration, so that when the system is placed in a body of water, the lower layer remains substantially submerged below the surface of the water and the upper layer floats at or above the surface of the water.

AUTOMATED ATTACHMENT OF SOLAR COMPONENTS
A method may include positioning one or more PV module mounting devices along a length of a structural component. The method may include specifying one or more parameters related to fastening the PV module mounting devices to the structural component, the one or more parameters indicating a spacing between the PV module mounting devices. The method may include fastening, by an automated attachment equipment, the PV module mounting devices to the structural component based on the specified parameters and moving the PV module mounting devices fastened to the structural component to an assembly platform.
Clamp assembly for solar tracker
In an example, the solar tracker has a clamp assembly that is configured to pivot a torque tube. In an example, the assembly has a support structure configured as a frame having configured by a first anchoring region and a second anchoring region. In an example, the support structure is configured from a thickness of metal material. In an example, the support structure is configured in an upright manner, and has a major plane region. In an example, the assembly has a pivot device configured on the support structure and a torque tube suspending on the pivot device and aligned within an opening of the support and configured to be normal to the plane region. In an example, the torque tube is configured on the pivot device to move about an arc in a first direction or in a second direction such that the first direction is in a direction opposite to the second direction.
