Our solar ABC: S for…? ☀️⠀

How is it that PV systems cover huge areas without sealing the soil? In today’s Solar ABC, we clarify this and other questions by taking a closer look at the substructure of our solar farms. 💡⠀

🔴 S for substructure⠀

The substructure of a solar farm forms the basis for PV modules. The modules are elevated and mounted on it. As already explained in a previous post, there are fixed-tilt substructures as well as substructures that follow the flow of the sun (“solar trackers”). The substructure is anchored in the ground using special pile driving so that the ground is only affected at certain points and not over the entire surface. 💪
