At Innovative Solar Systems, LLC (ISS) we believe commercial ground mount solar systems offer one of the best sources of renewable energy. While many companies are installing roof mounted systems, we see more efficiency in ground mounted solar systems. Roof mounted solar systems add more weight to a roof that may or may not be able to handle the added weight. In addition, there are many opportunities for new roof leaks to develop as a result of the solar system installation. In many cases, the roof will need to be replaced before the solar system resulting in additional costs to uninstall and reinstall the solar system.

Ground mounted photovoltaic solar systems are easy to properly orient to the proper sun direction. Maintenance, if required, is usually easier with the ground mounted systems than a roof mounted solar system. Installation costs are comparable with roof mounted solar systems. Ground mounted solar systems are usually installed on metal rack systems that have posts that are driven into the ground much like conventional pile driving except the posts may only go six feet into the ground depending on the geotechnical qualities of the soil and the load requirements.
