Using thin steel efficiently, this keeps the panels above the plants and dirt so it doesn’t get blocked or dirty. This would also be a bit more resistant to high wind because it can pass below the panels rather than getting trapped by the panel touching the ground. The slight angle ensures that water/dirt slides off more easily than a flat roof, and so the panels get maximum exposure facing in the direction of the sun either South or North depending on hemisphere.
