1. A solar panel pillar, comprising:
a first pair of solar panels having a first solar panel and a second solar panel pivotably coupled together at a first lower vertex of the first pair of solar panels;
the first solar panel having a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side that are horizontal and a first lateral side and a second lateral side that incline downward from the first longitudinal side to the second longitudinal side of the first solar panel;
the second solar panel having a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side that are horizontal and a first lateral side and a second lateral side that incline downward from the first longitudinal side to the second longitudinal side of the second solar panel and towards the second longitudinal side of the first solar panel;
the first lower vertex being defined by the second longitudinal side of the first solar panel being pivotably coupled with the second longitudinal side of the second solar panel, the first lower vertex being between a first angle defined by the first solar panel and the second solar panel inclining downwards towards each other;
a second pair of solar panels having a third solar panel and a fourth solar panel pivotably coupled together at a second lower vertex of the second pair of solar panels, the third solar panel being pivotably coupled to the second solar panel of the first pair of solar panels to form a first upper vertex;
the third solar panel having a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side that are horizontal and a first lateral side and a second lateral side that incline downward from the first longitudinal side to the second longitudinal side of the third solar panel, the first longitudinal side of the third solar panel being pivotably coupled to the first longitudinal side of the second solar panel of the first pair of solar panels to form the first upper vertex;
the fourth solar panel having a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side that are horizontal and a first lateral side and a second lateral side that incline downward from the first longitudinal side to the second longitudinal side of the fourth solar panel and towards the second longitudinal side of the third solar panel; and
the second lower vertex being defined by the second longitudinal side of the third solar panel being pivotably coupled with the second longitudinal side of the fourth solar panel, the second lower vertex being between a second angle defined by the third solar panel and the fourth solar panel inclining downwards towards each other;
wherein the first angle defined by the first solar panel and the second solar panel and the second angle defined by the third solar panel and the fourth solar panel are adjustable to increase and decrease in value.
