The different types of ground-mount solar racking systems | Art Sign Mar 15,2021

Traditional ground-mount systems

Ground-mounted solar systems essentially all work the same—systems anchor to the ground and hold a large number of stacked panels, often two but sometimes three or four panels high. Two rails usually support each panel, whether oriented in landscape or portrait. The anchoring to the ground is the tough part of these installations, as there are many different types of foundations.

If the soil is clear of debris, steel beams are driven into the ground and the racking system is attached to the beams. If ground conditions are not suited for smoothly driven beams, anchor systems may be used—helical piles, ground screws. These can take more time to install as they have to power through boulders and other large debris.


Ground-mounted systems don’t always have to penetrate into the earth. Capped landfills and other brownfields are ideal for solar arrays, as they are underused land areas, but their temperamental ground conditions cannot be disturbed. Arrays can be ballasted on the ground just as they are on flat roofs. Concrete blocks hold a system in place, and if ground conditions can hold the weight of a concrete truck, cast-in-place blocks may be an easier option for installers.

Pole mounts

Pole-mount solar installation are used in situations when avaialble roof space is insufficient or impractical. While solar pole mounting can maximize exposure to sunlight, it does require a large portion of land to be dedicated to the solar installation. For this reason, solar panel pole mounting tends to be limited to commercial or agricultural installations, or on large private properties. In these situations, professionally installed pole-mount solar panel systems can help reduce your energy bill or even power your property entirely. The use of an automatic tracker can help maximize exposure to sunlight and power generation.
