This Spring Festival, were you overwhelmed by a little blue whale? The new “top influencer” DeepSeek is a large language model developed by a China artificial intelligence company, boasting powerful natural language processing capabilities that can accurately understand questions and provide clear answers to both daily and professional inquiries.
When DeepSeek meets the rising star of the PV industry, the “flexible solar mounting system,” what kind of sparks will they create? Let’s explore DeepSeek’s view of flexible solar mounting system!
01 What is a flexible solar mounting system?
A flexible solar mounting system is a solar panel support system based on a tension structure design, primarily used to support, fix, and rotate solar panels in PV power generation systems. Its core feature is the realization of large-span support through a prestressed cable structure, suitable for complex terrains and special scenarios.
02 What are the structural characteristics of flexible solar mounting system s?
Flexible solar mounting system mainly consist of a prestressed cable structure, support system, anchorage system, and damping vibration reduction system. We can delve into the unique aspects of flexible mounts through the following five keywords:
Large span: The initial tension of the prestressed cables provides the necessary structural stiffness for flexible mounts, effectively offsetting the upper load and enabling large-span support.
High clearance: Flexible mounts can adopt elevated column solutions to meet site clearance requirements, reaching heights of over 10 meters in projects like water plants, factories, and corridors.
Multi-span: Depending on the terrain, flexible mounts can be flexibly arranged in continuous multi-span forms without the need for intermediate breaks.
High capacity: Flexible mounts can fully utilize site conditions, following the principle of “multi-span, multi-row,” to maximize land use efficiency through reasonable structural layouts.
Low steel usage: High-strength cables replace traditional tension members, not only reducing the structure’s self-weight but also significantly cutting down on steel consumption. Statistics show that flexible mounts can save 35% in steel usage and reduce investment costs by 5%~10% compared to traditional power stations.
03 What are the application scenarios for flexible solar mounting system?
Due to their unique structural characteristics, flexible mounts have a wide range of applications. They can adapt to various complex terrains and environments, such as mountains, deserts, and water bodies, and play a significant role in projects like sewage treatment plants, agricultural-PV complementation, fishery-PV complementation, mountain PV, and parking lot PV projects. Moreover, flexible mounts have broad application prospects in emerging fields like urban distributed PV projects and PV agriculture.
Huge Energy’s flexible solar mounting system is suitable for complex environments like mountains, sewage treatment plants, fish ponds, and farmlands. The system can achieve a maximum clearance of 9 meters and a maximum span of 50 meters. Its three core advantages of high clearance, large span, and high safety effectively address issues like high land occupation, difficulty in land reuse, and high engineering costs associated with traditional PV mounts, promoting the widespread application of “PV +” comprehensive projects.
04 What are the system advantages of flexible solar mounting system ?
- Land saving
Compared to traditional fixed solar mounting system , using flexible solar mounting system in mountainous areas can save more than 25% of land, effectively alleviating land resource shortages.
- Strong wind resistance
Flexible solar mounting systems use flexible materials as support structures, offering excellent flexibility and wind resistance, capable of withstanding natural disasters like strong winds and reducing damage to PV systems.
Wind resistance is the core design of Huge Energy’s prestressed suspension stable wind resistance system. By tensioning prestress and controlling cable sag, the north-south stabilizing tie rods integrate the structure, enhancing the stability of the mounting system. The module cables, stabilizing tie rods, load-bearing cables, and wind-resistant cables are closely linked. The mounting structure has been reviewed and calculated by Tongji University, effectively resisting 15-level typhoons and passing CPP&RWDI wind tunnel test certification,with multiple patents related to flexible mounts.
- Low installation and maintenance costs
Flexible solar mounting systems have fewer piles, components, and nodes than fixed solar mounting systems, making the installation process simple and fast. At the same time, excellent adjustability also facilitates maintenance work, reducing long-term operating costs.
Huge Energy’s flexible solar mounting systems offers high and low corrosion protection options. It is recommended to use hot-dip galvanized steel strands for C3 and below environments, and filled epoxy coating + PE sheath/high vanadium cables for C4 and above environments to extend the mounting system’s service life and ensure long-term stable power generation.
- Improved photoelectric conversion efficiency
Flexible solar mounting systems can automatically adjust according to the sun’s angle, maximizing sunlight capture and thereby enhancing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar panels.
To continuously promote technological research and development, Huge Energy has established an independent R&D team focused on flexible mounts technology innovation, providing personalized design solutions and covering one-stop services from design, installation to operation and maintenance. Huge Energy also collaborates with Xiamen University to establish a joint laboratory for PV system equipment research and development, continuously optimizing product performance and improving mounting structures, achieving ten years of zero risk incidents.
In DeepSeek’s view, flexible solar mounting systems, with their large span, high clearance, and strong adaptability, demonstrate significant advantages in complex terrains and land resource-scarce areas. Although flexible mounts currently occupy a small share of the PV mount market, their demand is growing rapidly, with limitless application prospects.
In the future, Huge Energy will remain steadfast in its goals and unchanged in its original aspirations, promoting the implementation of more flexible solar mounting system projects and contributing to the development of global green energy.
