Ground-Mounted Solar

Use available land to generate renewable electricity for your business.

When rooftop space is limited, unsuitable or simply not enough for the energy requirements of a business, a ground-mounted solar PV system can provide another option.

Ground-mounted systems use a purpose-designed structure to position solar panels on suitable land.

When Could Ground-Mounted Solar Make Sense?

It may be worth considering where a business has:

Available Land

Unused or underutilised land can provide valuable space for a larger solar array without relying on existing roof areas.

Limited Rooftop Space

Where the available roof cannot accommodate the required system size, ground-mounted solar can offer additional installation capacity.

High Energy Demand

Businesses with significant electricity consumption may benefit from a larger solar system designed to offset a greater proportion of their energy use.

Long-Term Energy Goals

Ground-mounted solar can support businesses with long-term renewable energy objectives, particularly where there is a suitable location and sufficient space for an array.

Designed Around Your Site

Ground-mounted solar projects need to be carefully planned around the characteristics of the land and the requirements of the wider site. Before a system is designed, we assess the key technical, practical and regulatory considerations that could affect its suitability and performance.

  • Land Conditions
  • Available Area
  • Panel Orientation
  • Shading
  • Electrical Infrastructure
  • Site Access
  • Planning Requirements
  • Grid Connection Requirements

TRE can assess your site and help determine whether a ground-mounted solar system is a technically and practically viable option for your business.

From Site Assessment to Support

Every ground-mounted solar project is different, so our process is designed to understand the site, assess its potential and develop a solution around your business requirements.

01

Site Assessment

We assess the available land, site conditions, access, shading and existing infrastructure to understand whether the location is suitable for a ground-mounted system.

02

Feasibility & Energy Analysis

We review your energy consumption and assess the potential solar generation, helping determine whether a ground-mounted system makes practical and commercial sense.

03

System Design

We develop a tailored system design based on the available land, energy requirements, panel positioning and overall project objectives.

04

Planning & Grid Requirements

We work through the relevant planning, technical and grid connection requirements to help establish what is needed to move the project forward.

05

Installation

Once the project is ready to proceed, the solar array and associated infrastructure are installed and connected by appropriately qualified professionals.

06

Commissioning & Support

The completed system is commissioned and checked before operation. We can also provide ongoing monitoring and maintenance to support long-term performance.
