Solar PV flexible bracket is a relatively new way of installing solar PV modules, but PV flexible bracket has so many advantages, why can't it replace the solar fixed bracket?

Technology maturity: Compared with solar fixed mounts, the technology of PV flexible mounts is relatively new, and there are relatively few mature products and solutions on the market.

Durability and stability: Due to the relative softness of the material of the flexible bracket, it is relatively weak in wind resistance, earthquake resistance, pressure resistance, etc., so it has some limitations in adapting to the environmental conditions and external forces. Under some bad weather conditions, such as strong wind, heavy snow, freezing, etc., the flexible bracket may be damaged or ruptured risk, resulting in the stability and durability of the bracket decreased.

Cost-effectiveness: Although PV flexible mounts are highly adaptable and have advantages in changing terrain and environmental conditions, their materials and manufacturing processes are relatively complex and their manufacturing and installation costs are relatively high. In contrast, fixed mounts have the advantage of lower cost and remain an economically viable option on some fixed and flat sites.

Difficulty of maintenance and repair: Due to the movable and adjustable characteristics of PV flexible mounts, their maintenance and repair may be more difficult and complicated. Whereas fixed mounts are relatively simple, maintenance and repair work is more convenient and easy to carry out routine inspection and maintenance operations.

Site requirements: PV flexible mounts need to have a flexible site environment to some extent, such as better soil conditions, less topographical changes, and so on. If the site conditions are more restrictive, such as uneven land or the presence of underground pipelines, it may lead to limitations in the applicability of PV flexible mounts.

Solar panel fixed bracket as the mainstream choice, has been developed and applied for many years, the technology is more mature and widely accepted by the market.POWERACK has many years of experience in the design, production of fixed solar mounting system, welcome to consult.
