Ground-mounted solar systems are ideal for businesses with available land but limited suitable roof space. These systems can achieve optimal orientation and tilt angles, maximizing generation per panel.

Ground arrays are commonly used for larger installations exceeding 250kW, where land availability allows for economies of scale. Agricultural businesses, industrial sites, and commercial properties with surplus land are ideal candidates.
