Ground-Mounted Solar Panel Installation
If your property lacks adequate roof space for solar panels or you have available land, a ground-mount solar installationoffers an efficient and flexible way to generate clean, renewable energy. Insolation Solar specialises in designing and installing bespoke ground-mounted solar panel systems across Gloucestershire, helping homeowners, farmers, and businesses utilise their land to reduce energy costs and lower carbon emissions.
Unlike rooftop solar panels, ground-mounted solar panels are installed on robust, adjustable frames fixed directly into the ground. This setup allows optimal positioning and angling to maximise sunlight capture throughout the day, regardless of roof design or shading. Whether you own farmland, commercial premises, or a large residential estate, a ground-mount solar PV system provides enhanced energy output, flexibility, and significant 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:
We recently installed an 88-panel ground-mounted solar system on a farm near Wolverhampton. The client chose to install the panels on a small section of pasture, elevating them to allow sheep to graze underneath. This created a multifunctional solution that combines renewable energy generation with continued agricultural use.
Our expert team completed the entire installation within seven days, including ground preparation, trenching, frame assembly, wiring, and commissioning. The system comprises 88 Longi Explorer 435W solar panels, two Growatt inverters, and two Tesla Powerwall 3 battery units. The site was left clean and fully operational once the project was finished.
With a total capacity of 38.28kW, this system is expected to produce approximately 39,000 kilowatt-hours (39 MWh) of sustainable electricity annually, substantially reducing the farm’s reliance on grid energy.
Environmental and Financial Benefits:
Installing a ground-mounted solar panel system like this significantly reduces environmental impact by offsetting carbon emissions equivalent to planting 717 trees annually. It also conserves over 11,900 litres of petrol and prevents the burning of more than 13,500 kilograms of coal each year. Financially, the farm saves nearly £8,000 a year on energy costs, with savings expected to rise as energy prices increase.
