Zusammenfassung:Apparatus is provided for supporting a solar energy collection device ( 601, 602 ). The apparatus is substantially wedge-shaped with a base ( 102 ) for contacting a roof surface ( 203 ) and an inclined front face ( 103 ) for supporting the device ( 601 ). The apparatus is configured such that the total weight is adjustable so as to apply an appropriate loading on the roof. In a first embodiment ballast is supplied to a ballast cavity ( 105 ). In an alternative embodiment, wedge-shaped members ( 903 ) may be selectively removed from an assembly so as to provide a desired weight distribution.
