There are 2 different types of ground-mount solar systems

Standard Ground Mount
Pole-Mount Solar Panels

1. Standard Ground Mount :

Also known as traditional ground mounts, these ground-mounted solar panels use ground anchors to hold up and support the solar panels on rails.

Standard ground-mount solar systems are the most common and cost-effective solar solution. When a rooftop system isn’t available or suitable, ground-mounted systems can be used instead.

2. Pole-Mount Solar Panels :

Unlike standard ones, pole-mounted solar panels require only one hole to set up the large single pole that holds the panels. When compared to ground-mount panels, these panels offer clearance from the ground.

Pole-mounted solar systems are usually positioned so that they face south, at an angle that is equal to the latitude of the location. This ensures that they will receive the maximum amount of sunlight possible during the day. Tracking systems can also be incorporated into pole-mounted solar systems to follow the path of the sun throughout the day.
How do I know which type of system is best for my needs?

Which type of system is best for you will depend on a number of factors, including your budget and the amount of sunlight that your location receives.

Single-axis and dual-axis tracking systems are best for maximising sunlight capture, but they come at a higher cost and require more maintenance. Fixed-tilt systems are more affordable and easier to maintain, but they don’t capture as much sunlight. Ultimately, the best system for you will depend on your specific needs and location.
If you are not sure which type of system is right for you, talk to a solar installer who can help you make the best decision.
