Abstract
An apparatus for mounting photovoltaic modules is disclosed. The apparatus includes a bracket where the bracket defines a slot in a lower portion of the bracket and the slot extends along a longitudinal length of the bracket. A clamp is securable to the bracket on an upper portion of the bracket. A first photovoltaic module and a second photovoltaic module are mountable on a first side of the bracket and a first side of the clamp, where the first photovoltaic module is adjacent to the second photovoltaic module. A footer is variably positionable on the bracket along the slot.
