"Solar Made Simple: Get Started with a Ground Mount for Easy Installation”
Ground mount solar is a great option for homeowners who are eager to enjoy the many benefits of a solar transition, but are unable to install panels on their roof.
Is your roof too old or steep? Are you planning on repairing your roof in the near future? Maybe you simply don’t like the look of solar panels on your house. Whatever the reason, you can still cut your energy cost and invest in the future of our planet with a ground mount solar array!
As with other methods of solar power, ground mounts connect your home to the clean, abundant energy of the sun. Ground mounted solar, especially when connected to other solar power technologies, helps your family lower your carbon footprint and enjoy numerous advantages of solar living for years to come:
Ground Solar vs. Rooftop Solar
While not as popular as rooftop solar, ground mounted arrays offer a number of advantages over rooftop systems:
- System can be oriented at perfect angle and shade-free area, no need to accept imperfect home orientation
- Array can be located in less conspicuous area than on the roof
- Array not hindered with on-roof obstructions like dormers, skylights, and plumbing vents
- No rooftop work required, so certain parts of the installation go much more quickly
Additionally, with our new equipment, the premium for installing a ground mounted solar array has dropped by over 26%, to the point where in some instances the ground mount solution will be comparable or cost-competitive with roof mounted installations.
