6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic panel piling installation]

What is a solar pile & foundation?

At Exactus Energy, we specialize in providing thorough solar pile and foundation designs to set you up for success through installation and beyond. Solar pile structures are foundational components supporting solar panel arrays, often composed of durable materials like steel or aluminum.

What is a solar pile structure?

Solar pile structures are foundational components supporting solar panel arrays, often composed of durable materials like steel or aluminum. These vertical supports anchor the panels securely to the ground, ensuring stability and resistance against environmental factors.

How do I choose a pile for a solar farm?

The load-bearing capacity needed for the solar farm is another critical factor in selecting the type of pile. Projects requiring high load capacities—such as those with large, heavy solar panels or in regions with significant wind forces—may necessitate the use of concrete or composite piles.

How do you install solar panels in a concrete pier?

Concrete Piers: Concrete footings are poured into the ground to support the solar array. This method is commonly used for smaller-scale installations or regions with specific soil conditions. Before installing the solar panels, thorough ground preparation is essential to ensure a level and stable foundation.

How is a ground mounted PV solar panel Foundation designed?

This case study focuses on the design of a ground mounted PV solar panel foundation using the engineering software program spMats. The selected solar panel is known as Top-of-Pole Mount (TPM), where it is deigned to install quickly and provide a secure mounting structure for PV modules on a single pole.

Are helical piles good for solar panels?

Helical piles and micropiles work well in compression and tension applications and are ideally suited for solar panel installation. What are the differences between drilled shaft and helical piles? What equipment options are available for their installation?
