Abstract: Photovoltaic roofing systems including a roof pan, a photovoltaic device, and roof covering members. The roof pan is supported on a deck of a roof. The photovoltaic device is mounted to the roof pan and includes a photovoltaic panel. The roof covering members are mounted to the deck surrounding and overlapping the roof pan to define an integrated covering. The roof covering members overlapping the roof pan inhibits water flowing to the deck underneath the integrated covering. In some examples, the photovoltaic roofing system includes one or more of an inverter, an energy storage device, a wire retainer, and a roof cap.

Abstract: Corner connection members for a photovoltaic module frame include thru-passages for receiving insert components that perform and facilitate a variety of functions, such as attaching the photovoltaic module to a roof, providing a ground connection for the solar cells, to facilitate the mechanical and electrical connection of photovoltaic modules which are arranged side-by-side, to facilitate securing photovoltaic modules in a stack, and providing mechanical and electrical connections to adjacent photovoltaic modules in an array. Insert components may also include electronic devices, such as microinverters and energy storage devices, which are connected to the photovoltaic modules when the insert component is installed in the corner member.
