What is a Ground-Mounted
Solar Power System?
A ground-mounted solar system is a solar panel setup installed on the ground rather than on a roof. This type of installation is ideal for properties with ample land, such as farms, acreages, and other spacious residential or commercial areas. Ground-mounted systems are often preferred for their flexibility in placement and ease of maintenance. They can be strategically positioned to capture maximum sunlight throughout the day, ensuring optimal energy production. If you have the space, ground mounted solar systems are an amazing way to generate clean renewable energy without having to modify or alter the roof of your home.
Why Choose Helical Screw Piles for Your Ground-Mounted Solar Panels?
The foundation of your ground-mounted solar panels is critical for the stability and longevity of your installation. At Red Deer Screw Pile Pros, we recommend helical screw piles as the ideal solution. These are steel shafts with helical plates that are driven into the ground, providing a strong, stable, reliable foundation capable of withstanding various soil conditions and weather extremes.
Helical screw piles are particularly popular due to their straightforward installation process, minimal site disruption, and high load-bearing capacity. Most ground-mounted solar panel systems come with the screw piles for their racking, thus making them a convenient and efficient choice.
Can Red Deer Screw Pile Pros Install the Screw Piles Provided with My Solar Kit?
YES! The Red Deer Screw Pile Pros are experienced in installing the helical screw piles that come with your solar kit. Our team is well-versed in working with various solar racking systems that use standard-sized screw piles, typically with a pile shaft diameter of 2 7/8″ or 3 1/2″.
Each solar installation project is unique, and we are prepared to meet the specific requirements of your kit. Whether you’re undertaking a small residential project or a larger commercial installation, our professionals ensure that the piles are installed with precision and security.
Why Are Ground-Mounted Solar Panel Assemblies Becoming More Popular in Red Deer?
Ground-mounted solar panel assemblies are gaining popularity among homeowners, especially those with ample space like farms and acreages. Here are some reasons why:
- Optimal Sunlight Capture: Ground-mounted systems can be positioned to capture the maximum amount of sunlight, thereby enhancing energy production.
- Easy Maintenance and Access: These systems are easier to maintain and access compared to roof-mounted installations, allowing for simpler cleaning and repairs.
- Effective Space Utilization: Properties with extensive land can use unused space for solar energy generation, turning idle land into a productive energy source.
- Scalability: Ground-mounted systems offer the flexibility to scale up if energy needs grow in the future. Adding more panels is simpler when there is room to expand.
- Enhanced Cooling: Panels mounted on the ground tend to stay cooler compared to roof-mounted systems, potentially improving efficiency as high temperatures can reduce solar panel effectiveness.
