Provided herein are various enhancements for solar panels and associated solar arrays. In one example, a method of manufacturing includes forming, by an additive manufacturing process, a stackup of half-panels comprising connected pairs of the half-panels each having an integrated construction comprising a webbing structure connected to a skin layer substantially covering a face. The method also includes separating the stackup into detached pairs of the half-panels, assembling a selected detached pair of the half-panels into a full panel, and attaching photovoltaic cells to a selected face of the full panel.
