6 FAQs about [Prestressed photovoltaic support components]

Why are pre-stressed flexible cable-supported photovoltaic systems becoming more popular?

With the increasing adoption of mountainous photovoltaic installations, pre-stressed flexible cable-supported photovoltaic (PV) systems (FCSPSs) are becoming increasingly popular in large-scale solar power plants due to their evident adaptability to sloping terrain. The wind-induced deformation of FCSPSs significantly influences the wind field.

What is a PV support structure?

Support structures are the foundation of PV modules and directly affect the operational safety and construction investment of PV power plants. A good PV support structure can significantly reduce construction and maintenance costs. In addition, PV modules are susceptible to turbulence and wind gusts, so wind load is the control load of PV modules.

What is cable-supported photovoltaic (PV)?

Cable-supported photovoltaic (PV) modules have been proposed to replace traditional beam-supported PV modules. The new system uses suspension cables to bear the loads of the PV modules and therefore has the characteristics of a long span, light weight, strong load capacity, and adaptability to complex terrains.

What is a flexible PV support structure?

The baseline, unreinforced flexible PV support structure is designated as F. The first reinforcement strategy involves increasing the diameter of the prestressed cables to 17.8 mm and 21.6 mm, respectively. These configurations are named F1-1 and F1-2 for ease of comparison.

What are the different types of PV support systems?

At present, there are three main types of PV support systems: fixed mounted PV, flexible mounted PV, and float-over mounted PV systems. Fixed mounted PV systems are the traditional and most widely used PV system. They are usually mounted on the ground and building roofs.

What is a PV flexible system?

However, PV flexible system, formed by prestressed flexible cable structure is a large-span PV module support with spans of 10–40 m and has gained popularity in recent years. The modules can be installed 2–10 m above the ground, providing high headroom and reduced pile numbers.
