Ground Mount Structure: These structures are installed on the ground and can be adjusted to the optimal angle for sunlight exposure. They are suitable for large-scale installations. 

Roof Mount Structure: Attached directly to a building's roof, these are the most common type for residential solar systems. They must be compatible with the roofing material. 

Pole Mount Structure: These elevate panels higher off the ground on a single pole, allowing them to avoid shading and can be adjusted for angle. 

Tracking Structure: These mounts follow the sun's path across the sky, maximizing energy capture. They can be single-axis (moving in one direction) or dual-axis (moving in two directions). 

Carport Mount Structure: These structures provide coverage for parking areas while supporting solar panels above.
