A new and highly optimized solar photovoltaic (PV) system including: 1) field deployable fully automated solar PV robotic array assembly and installation system, 2) solar PV panel wiring and power conversion system designed to allow tracking panel-to-panel shading while maintaining maximized power output, 3) combined structural and electrical inter-panel connector system supporting the new wiring scheme, 4) panel structural supports for the automated assembly and new inter-panel connector systems, and 5) fully automated post installer for posts supporting the large robotically assembled solar array sections. It is a fully integrated system for rapid installation, lower cost, higher energy output, and higher quality assembly of PV arrays, including tracking and floating arrays, which together create a transformative advancement for the solar energy industry.
