  • Reduced Disruption

    A Ground Screw system minimises disruptions to your property, as it often involves less noise, debris, and disturbance compared to traditional foundation construction.

Ground Screws for Solar Farms

Ground Screws present an ideal foundation solution for large-scale solar array farms due to their efficiency and versatility. By securely anchoring support structures into the ground, Ground Screws eliminate the need for extensive excavation and concrete pouring, significantly reducing installation time and costs. Their modular design allows for easy customisation to accommodate various soil types and site conditions, ensuring stability and durability over time.

Site-Specific Tension Load Testing

Due to high tension and uplift forces generated from large solar panel arrays in open fields, we offer tension and compression load testing. Our testing will be supported by a findings report to provide assurance the Ground Screws specified are suitable for your site conditions. Check out our Load Testing page for more information.
