Ground Mount Solar System

Picture

Total solar-powered home

This 10.4 kW ground-mount, grid-tied, solar PV system is designed to offset 100% of the home's electrical consumption.

A ground mount was chosen for ideal solar exposure and for the ease of occasional maintenance, including easy snow removal in winter for maximum energy production year around.

This project uses 72-cell high-capacity Solar World modules and Solar Edge optimizers and inverter. The sturdy mounting system foundation is embedded in concrete cast five feet into the ground to provide years of wind resistance.

Installation was completed without disturbing the resident rattlesnake who calls the area home and celebrated with a cold, frosty Sun King beer.
