Ground-Mounted Solar Panel Installation
If you lack suitable roof space for solar panels, or simply have unused land, a ground-mount solar installation is an excellent way to generate renewable energy efficiently. At Insolation Solar, we provide tailored ground-mounted solar panel systems across the East Midlands, helping homeowners, farmers, and businesses capitalise on their available land to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions.
Unlike traditional rooftop systems, ground-mounted solar panels are installed on strong, adjustable frames directly into the ground. This allows us to position your solar array at the ideal angle and orientation for maximum sunlight exposure, unaffected by roof shape or shading. Whether you own farmland, a commercial site, or a large residential plot, a ground-mount solar PV system offers flexibility, high energy output, and long-term savings.
One of our recent customers near Wolverhampton had acres of open farmland and decided to invest in a solar ground-mount system to reduce energy bills and future-proof his property (see below).
A Recent Ground Mount Solar System Installation:
One of our recent projects involved installing an 88-panel ground-mounted solar system on a farm near Wolverhampton. The client utilised a small section of pastureland to accommodate the solar array. The panels were elevated to allow sheep to graze underneath, creating a multifunctional system that benefits both energy generation and agriculture.
Our expert team completed the installation within a week, handling all ground preparation, trenching, frame assembly, wiring, and commissioning. The system included 88 Longi Explorer 435W solar panels, two Growatt inverters, and two Tesla Powerwall 3 battery units. As always, the site was left clean and fully operational once finished.
This system has a capacity of 38.28kW and is expected to produce approximately 39,000 kilowatt-hours (39 MWh) of green electricity annually—enough to power the farm and reduce reliance on grid energy substantially.
Environmental and Financial Benefits:
Installing a ground-mounted solar panel system like this helps the environment by reducing CO₂ emissions equivalent to planting 717 trees annually. It also saves over 11,900 litres of petrol and prevents burning more than 13,500 kilograms of coal every year. Financially, the farm owner saves nearly £8,000 annually on energy bills, with savings set to increase as energy prices rise.
