"Wall PV": Solar installation on the facade is often a sensible alternative to balcony power plants
… The elegant solution from Wattstone for wall mounting of PV modules without protruding components and with long-lasting performance allows for greater flexibility for solar systems. The advantage of the wallPV mounting systems, which can now be ordered at GreenAkku.de, lies in the floating support of the solar modules in insertion rails, which ensure load-free conditions and thus increase their lifespan. At the same time, the visual appearance of the solar modules is not disturbed by freestanding, often shiny silver brackets that clash with the facade and the often black modules, resulting in an attractive PV system without an eyesore.
… Rock-solid mounting
The installation of the wallPV systems is simple and efficient: The concealed mounting system consists of support rails, insertion rails, and dowels that allow for horizontal attachment of two PV modules to the wall …
Facade mounting system for plug-in solar devices
… In case no solar modules fit on the balcony, fence, flat roof, or garage, Greenakku offers the wall PV mounting systems. The facade mounting system for plug solar devices from Wattstone is available from the online provider at an introductory price of 249 euros for two photovoltaic modules.
Wattstone's solution for wall mounting PV modules is designed to provide a great deal of flexibility for solar installations. The mounting can be done on various building walls or fences. The advantage of the wall PV mounting systems is said to be the floating support of the solar modules in insert rails.

L-stones for photovoltaic systems on flat roofs or in the garden
The 24-kilogram concrete base allows for the installation of photovoltaic systems without a substructure. Drilling and fastenings are not necessary, as initial tests in the wind tunnel have also shown according to Greenakku...
…A substructure for the photovoltaic system is not necessary, according to Greenakku. Additional weighting or securing of the mount is also superfluous, as the L-shaped stones, each weighing 24 kilograms, are heavy enough to protect the solar modules against wind and weather. Initial tests in the wind tunnel have also confirmed this, according to Greenakku. On flat roofs, the sensitive roof membrane does not need to be pierced. According to Greenakku, the support surfaces made of bitumen and other substrates under the L-shaped stones are protected by the included anti-slip pads…

Simple installation of PV systems on flat roofs
New L-stones from the manufacturer Wattstone ensure easier and faster installation of solar systems on flat roofs without having to drill into the roof membrane and without needing additional weights...
… This allows solar systems to be securely fastened directly onto bases made of fine-pored concrete with integrated threaded sleeves – without the need for assembling a substructure. Additionally, the concrete bases eliminate the need for extra weighting or securing of the mounting, as the L-shaped stones, each weighing 24 kg, are heavy enough to safely expose the solar modules to wind and weather. Initial tests in the wind tunnel have confirmed this, reports the manufacturer. Drilling into the sensitive roof membrane is therefore unnecessary, as the solar power plant does not need to be anchored on flat roofs. The surfaces made of bitumen and other substrates under the L-stones are protected by the included anti-slip pads.

The clever-practical solar power plant for your mesh fence
Photovoltaic plug-and-play system for the garden fence
… The photovoltaic system is mounted vertically on a rod grid fence. It generates a lot of solar power even at low sun angles and in winter. With some craftsmanship, the plug-and-play system can also be installed on any other type of fence. Additionally, photovoltaic systems with more than 600 watts can be installed. However, these would require a permit. For systems up to 600 watts output and 230 volts output, this is not necessary. The inverters can then be connected directly to the home network via a Schuko plug.
The "ZaunPV" systems are designed for installation without a permit on garden fences, Green Akku further states. The complete set consists of one to two solar modules ...

Practical solar systems for the garden fence
As an alternative to solar panels on the roof or balcony, ZaunPV from GreenAkku comes into play. The PV modules are easy to install and also serve as a privacy screen. ... Balcony power plants are a good alternative to PV systems on one's own roof or solar roof tiles. For example, those living in a ground-floor apartment don't benefit much from this. However, if a garden is available, alternatives come into play. These come in exotic forms, such as wind trees or wind bushes. But even the garden fence can help reduce the electricity bill ... The modules are mounted vertically using the included theft-proof fastenings on the garden fence. According to the manufacturer, the shading-resistant (Hot-Spot-free) modules are particularly effective in the morning and evening hours. Practical - because during these times, electricity consumption typically rises in average households.
