Sollega is a US-based solar racking company that provides flat and ground-mount solar arrays for commercial and industrial use. Sollega operates outside of The Mission District in San Francisco, California.

History[edit]

The company was founded in 2009 by Elie Rothschild, John Humphrey, and George Schnakenberg III. Sollega proposed a cheaper alternative to conventional metal solar panel mounting systems. The company produced its first racking system, the Instarack 15°. This was followed by the Instarack 10°. These were replaced with the updated Fastrack 5° in 2012. In 2014, this was replaced by the current system, the Fastrack 510.

The current racking system provided by Sollega is the Fastrack 510. It can mount 5° and 10° arrays and is designed to be anchored using anchors and/or ballast. The individual units are made out of lightweight high density polyethylene plastic (HDPE) with a minimum of 35% recycled content.
