Ground-Mount Solar Arrays
Utility-scale and commercial ground-mount solar arrays from civil site work through commissioning — for landfills, parking canopies, agrivoltaic sites, and commercial land.
Our Ground-Mount Solar Arrays capabilities
Ground Array Civil & Structural
Site clearing, grading, stormwater management, driven pile or ballasted racking installation, and access road construction for commercial and utility-scale ground arrays.
Solar Carport & Canopy
Parking canopy solar structures combining EV charging below with solar generation above — the most cost-effective way to add both amenities simultaneously on any parking lot.
Agrivoltaic & Brownfield
Solar on agricultural land (agrivoltaic systems) and formerly industrial brownfield sites — often eligible for enhanced incentives and lower land cost than greenfield commercial parcels.
Ideal for these applications
Commercial Land Owners
Property owners with underutilized land adjacent to commercial or industrial buildings — ground arrays can monetize otherwise idle real estate.
Municipal Landfills
Closed landfill caps are ideal solar sites — no competing land use, good solar resource, and eligible for federal brownfield incentives.
Utility-Scale Community Solar
Community solar gardens serving multiple retail electric customers from a single larger system — increasingly common in states with community solar legislation.
Parking Lot Owners
Large surface parking lots at malls, office parks, and universities can host solar canopies that generate power, provide shade, and integrate EV charging.
Our ground-mount solar arrays process
Site Assessment
Topographic survey, geotechnical investigation, solar resource assessment, utility interconnection study, and wetland/environmental review.
Civil & Structural Design
Grading plan, drainage design, access road, racking structural engineering, and utility interconnection design submitted for all required permits.
Civil Construction
Site clearing, grading, erosion control, access road, and pile driving or ballasted foundation installation — civil schedule drives the overall project timeline.
Electrical & Commissioning
Module installation, string wiring, inverter commissioning, utility interconnection, and monitoring system activation.
Frequently asked
What size ground-mount systems do you install?
We install commercial ground arrays from 250 kW to 5 MW AC. Projects above 5 MW are typically utility-scale and require a different project delivery model — we can refer those to appropriate partners.
Do you handle utility interconnection for ground arrays?
Yes — we submit and manage the interconnection application to the local distribution utility or RTO, coordinate protection relay settings, and manage the utility witness commissioning test.
What happens to farmland productivity with agrivoltaic systems?
Agrivoltaic design intentionally preserves agricultural use by spacing panels to allow crop or pasture growth below. Certain crops actually benefit from partial shading in summer heat — we work with agrivoltaic specialists to optimize both energy and agricultural yield.
