Solar system mounting assembly

1. A ground mounting assembly for mounting a structure, comprising:

one or a plurality of posts, each post having a width and at least one pivotally mounted or bendable-upwardly curved or angled plate attached thereto, wherein each post also includes at least one three-sided pyramid-shaped stabilizing element having three triangular shaped sides, each side of said pyramid-shaped stabilizing element having a pointed end and a base end positioned opposite the pointed end, said pyramid-shaped stabilizing element being non-pivotally, fixedly mounted to the post spaced from both ends of the post, with the pointed end of each side being directed down and meeting at a common point and the base end of each side being directed up, wherein the bases of the triangular shaped sides of the at least one three-sided pyramid-shaped stabilizing element extend beyond the width of the post, said pyramid-shaped stabilizing element stabilizing the assembly against uplift.

2. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , comprising a plurality of posts, wherein said plurality of posts are at least partially buried underground, said plurality of posts being connected together by cross members which are either buried underground or set above ground.

3. The mounting assembly of claim 2 , wherein a top edge of each said cross members is buried to a depth of at least 1 foot underground.

4. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein said posts comprise sigma posts.

5. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein said post includes a plurality of said pivotally mounted or bendable plates.

6. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , comprising a plurality of posts, wherein a first portion of said plurality of posts define a front of said mounting assembly, and a second portion of said plurality of posts define a back of said mounting assembly, and wherein each of said posts are connected to an adjacent post by a cross member.

7. The mounting assembly of claim 6 , wherein the mounting assembly is in the form of a geometric shape in plan.

8. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the posts have round, square or geometric cross-sections.

9. A solar energy system, comprising:

a ground mounting assembly having a plurality of posts, each post having a width and at least one pivotally mounted or bendable upwardly curved or angled plate attached thereto, wherein each post also includes at least one three-sided pyramid-shaped stabilizing structure having three triangular shaped sides, each side of said pyramid-shaped stabilizing structures having a pointed end and a base end positioned opposite the pointed end, each pyramid-shaped stabilizing structure being non-pivotally fixedly mounted to a respective post spaced from both ends of the post, with the pointed end of each side being directed downward and meeting at a common point and the non-pointed ends of each side being directed up, wherein the bases of the triangular shaped sides of each of the three-sided pyramid-shaped stabilizing structures extend beyond the width of the post, said pyramid-shaped stabilizing structures stabilizing the assembly against uplift, wherein at least two of said plurality of posts are connected by a cross member; and

a solar panel array mounted to said ground mounting assembly.

10. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein said plurality of posts are at least partially positioned underground, with the cross members being buried and a mounting portion of said plurality of posts being exposed above ground.

11. The solar energy system of claim 10 , wherein a top edge of said cross members is buried to a depth of about 1 foot underground.

12. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein said posts comprise sigma posts.

13. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein a first portion of said plurality of posts define a front of said mounting assembly, and a second portion of said plurality of posts define a back of said mounting assembly.

14. The solar energy system of claim 13 , wherein the mounting assembly forms a rectangular shape.

15. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein the solar panel comprises a photovoltaic collector panel.

16. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein the solar panel comprises a solar thermal collector panel.

17. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein the posts have round, square or oval cross-sections.

18. The mounting assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one half-pyramid-shaped stabilizing element is non-pivotally fixedly mounted to a lower half of the post.

19. The solar energy system of claim 9 , wherein the half-pyramid-shaped stabilizing structures are non-pivotally fixedly mounted to a lower half of the posts.
