Hi friends! In this episode of Solar Mama’s ABCs of Solar Energy, we’re covering M for Mounting — the part of your solar system that holds everything in place and helps panels soak up the sun.

Mounting might not get much attention, but it’s a big deal. Without it, your panels wouldn’t stay secure or angled properly. Whether you’re installing on a roof, the ground, or even over a patio, mounting makes sure your panels are stable and effective.

Here’s what we go over in this episode:
What mounting systems are and how they work
Roof mounts, ground mounts, and pole-mounted options
How mounting helps angle panels for better sunlight
Examples of how mounting is used in real homes
Typical costs for mounting a solar system
How mounting is made to handle wind, snow, and weather
Why mounting is made to last 25+ years
What’s next in solar mounting tech for faster, easier installs

From aluminum rails on rooftops to stands in open yards, mounting is like the furniture foundation of your solar setup. It’s strong, simple, and made to fit your space.
