Ground-Mounted Solar Panel Installation
If your property lacks suitable roof space for solar panels or you have open land available, a ground-mount solar installation offers a highly efficient way to harness clean, renewable energy. Insolation Solar specialises in delivering bespoke ground-mounted solar panel systems throughout Shropshire, assisting homeowners, farmers, and businesses in utilising their land to cut energy costs and reduce their carbon footprint.
Unlike conventional rooftop solar, ground-mounted solar panels are mounted on sturdy frames installed directly into the ground. This approach allows precise positioning and angling to maximise sun exposure throughout the day, independent of roof shape or orientation. Whether you own farmland, a commercial facility, or a large residential estate, a ground-mount solar PV system provides flexibility, enhanced energy yield, 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:
Recently, we installed an 88-panel ground-mounted solar system on farmland near Wolverhampton. The client used a small section of pasture for the installation, raising the panels to enable sheep to graze underneath, thereby creating a multifunctional space that combines renewable energy generation with ongoing agricultural use.
Our experienced team completed the entire installation within seven days, including ground preparation, trenching, frame construction, wiring, and system commissioning. The setup features 88 Longi Explorer 435W solar panels, two Growatt inverters, and two Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries. As always, the site was left clean and fully operational at project completion.
With a total capacity of 38.28kW, this system is expected to produce around 39,000 kilowatt-hours (39 MWh) of sustainable electricity annually, significantly reducing the farm’s dependence on the national grid.
Environmental and Financial Benefits:
Installing a ground-mounted solar panel system like this contributes substantially to environmental protection by offsetting carbon emissions equivalent to planting 717 trees each year. It also conserves over 11,900 litres of petrol and prevents burning more than 13,500 kilograms of coal annually. Financially, the farm saves nearly £8,000 per year on energy bills, with savings expected to grow as energy prices increase.
