There are basically two options for mounting solar panels. Flexible panels are glued directly onto the roof using Sikaflex, as shown in the video above. The monocrystalline rigid panels are mounted with corner spoilers, which are glued onto the roof. Of course, the rigid panels can also be installed on existing structures, such as roof racks.

The following guides show how the individual components of a solar system must be connected and what to pay attention to. The key point is to know whether the panels are connected in series or in parallel. In general, parallel connection is the better option in cases of partial shading of the solar panels. The video linked above explains this in more detail.
