Ground-Mounted Solar Panel Installation
If you don’t have suitable roof space for solar panels or have available land, a ground-mount solar installation is an ideal way to generate clean, renewable energy efficiently. At Insolation Solar, we specialise in designing and installing bespoke ground-mounted solar panel systems across Staffordshire, helping homeowners, farmers, and businesses make the most of their land to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions.
Unlike traditional rooftop solar, ground-mounted solar panels are installed on durable, adjustable frames anchored directly into the ground. This allows for optimal placement, ensuring your solar array captures the maximum sunlight possible throughout the day. Whether you own farmland, a commercial property, or a large residential plot, a ground-mount solar PV system offers flexibility, strong energy output, and lasting financial benefits.
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 recent installation saw us fit an 88-panel ground-mounted solar system on a farm near Wolverhampton in Staffordshire. The client chose to use a small portion of his pasture to host the solar array, with the panels elevated so that livestock could continue grazing underneath. This created a versatile solution that combined renewable energy generation with ongoing agricultural use.
Our skilled team completed the installation within seven days, taking care of all ground preparation, trenching, frame assembly, cabling, and commissioning. The system comprises 88 Longi Explorer 435W solar panels, two Growatt inverters, and two Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries. As always, we ensured the site was left tidy and fully operational on completion.
The system capacity is 38.28kW, expected to generate around 39,000 kilowatt-hours (39 MWh) of clean electricity annually. This output is enough to power the farm’s needs and significantly reduce its dependence on grid electricity.
Environmental and Financial Benefits:
This type of ground-mounted solar panel system contributes to the environment by cutting CO₂ emissions equivalent to planting 717 trees every year. It also saves more than 11,900 litres of petrol and prevents over 13,500 kilograms of coal from being burned annually. On the financial side, the farm owner benefits from nearly £8,000 in yearly energy bill savings, with those savings projected to increase as energy prices continue to rise.
