Harness the Power of the Sun from the Ground Up

At Low Energy Services, we specialise in ground-mounted solar panels and commercial solar PV installations for businesses across Scotland, England, and Wales. As trusted commercial solar installers, we design, supply, and install high-performance ground-mounted photovoltaic systems that help your business reduce costs, generate clean power, and achieve long-term sustainability goals.

Whether you operate a manufacturing plant, an industrial facility, or a large rural business, a ground-mounted solar panel system can deliver maximum efficiency, scalability, and return on investment.

What Are Ground Mounted Solar Panels?

Unlike rooftop systems, ground-mounted solar panels, also known as ground-based solar panels or field-mounted solar panels, are installed directly on the ground. These systems can be positioned at the perfect tilt and orientation to capture the most sunlight throughout the year, delivering optimal energy generation.

At Low Energy Services, we install a wide range of ground-mounted PV panels and solar ground panels for commercial and industrial sites. Our team ensures every system is designed to maximise output, performance, and lifespan, while making the best use of your available land.

Why Choose Ground-Mounted Solar PV?

Key Benefits of Ground-Mounted Solar PV Systems:

  • Maximum Efficiency & Performance: A ground solar array can be installed at the ideal angle for your location, unlike fixed roof installations. This ensures your ground solar panels receive the highest solar exposure possible, resulting in more energy production and faster payback.
  • Flexibility for Large-Scale Installations: Ground-mounted solar PV systems are perfect for businesses with ample outdoor or unused land. They can be installed in open fields, car parks, or industrial estates, ideal for businesses wanting to expand their renewable capacity.
  • Easy Maintenance & Accessibility: Because solar panels installed on the ground are easier to access than roof-mounted systems, maintenance and cleaning are simpler and safer. Our expert team ensures all systems are properly secured, and grounding a solar panel is carried out to full UK safety standards.
  • Expandable & Future-Proof: Need more power in the future? A ground mount solar setup can easily be scaled up by adding more solar ground mount installations to your system, helping your business grow sustainably.
  • Sustainability & Cost Savings: Generate your own renewable energy, reduce your carbon footprint, and save significantly on electricity bills. With the right ground installed solar panels, your business can stabilise energy costs and boost ESG credentials..

Ground-Mounted Solar Panels – A Smart Investment

Switching to a ground-mounted solar PV system is one of the smartest business decisions you can make today. From manufacturing plants and logistics hubs to farms and data centres, more UK businesses are turning to non-roof-mounted solar panels as a reliable way to cut operational costs.

Ground-mounted solar panels cost less per watt on large-scale projects compared to smaller rooftop systems, thanks to simpler installation logistics and optimal sunlight access.

When designed and installed by experienced commercial solar panel contractors like Low Energy Services, your ground-mounted PV system can start paying back from day one through energy savings and potential incentives.

Our Ground-Mounted Solar PV Installation Process

We deliver complete end-to-end solar solutions, from design to installation and long-term maintenance.

  • Site Assessment & Feasibility: Our engineers conduct a full on-site survey to assess land suitability, shading, soil type, and access. We’ll determine the ideal configuration for your ground solar installation to ensure maximum efficiency and compliance with any ground-mounted solar panels planning permission requirements.
  • Custom Design & Engineering: Every project is bespoke. Our specialists use advanced software to model your solar ground array, optimising tilt, spacing, and energy yield to achieve the highest return.
  • Expert Installation: Our professional installation team handles every step of the ground-mounted solar panel installation process, including all electrical connections, mounting structures, and system grounding. We also perform quality checks and drone inspections to ensure precision and performance.
  • Maintenance & Support: We provide ongoing maintenance, cleaning, and system monitoring to keep your ground-mounted solar PV system performing at its best, year after year.
