Abstract

The present invention is a contoured backpan for a solar concentrator array. The backpan has depressions integrally formed in its bottom surface for seating solar concentrator modules. The depressions, in combination connecting troughs, provide a structure which is able to support an array of solar concentrators. Optional stiffening members may be attached to the backpan to provide additional structural rigidity, as well as to support a front panel for the array.
