Solar Panel ground mount structure with ground screw, 3.2 MW, South Africa
”
Good Day
Ref: 3.2MW Ground Mount Structure with screw anchors
We are based in central South Africa. Please quote me on the ground mounting structure – screw type
Panels must be portrait and not landscape.
Area: We have to stay within these boundaries due to the space limit.
The blue block below is max allowed space we have for PV array.
The extra 3m left and right and 5m on top and below are service routes and can not be used.
Location: Bloemfontein, Free State, South Africa https://goo.gl/maps/egUZbbjybNBZG8QQ7
Weather: https://www.meteoblue.com/en/weather/historyclimate/climatemodelled/bloemfontein_republic-of-south-africa_1018725
Wind Average Speed 6-15 m/s
Wind Gust: 45m/s gust for 3 seconds
– see attachment for South Africa
Snow Load: None – 0 cm
Tilt angle is 25 degree
Rain: We don’t have a lot of rain… 300-1000mm per year
PV Array Table: Double PV on row – Portrait
Solar module: 2115*1048*40mm, 450W
Array: portrait: 2*124 PV, 29 units / rows
Module qty: 7,129 pcs
– see attachment
Ground clearance 500-1000 mm at the lowest point
Soil Type: Red hard sand on the top part to medium clay at bottom
We use the AVANT green machine to auger drill the screws into the ground
Please design a fixed ground mount solar structure for PV array – ground screw type

Dear Izak
Well understanding you have special equipment to pilling.
This pile equipment to do screw in as the reason why you ask a quote on ground screws in the first place…
The ground screw type solar racking system is a must for you.
Please refer to our design base on information given.
(1) Design for this 3.2 MW ground mount structure screw type:
(2) BOM for this 3.2 MW solar ground mount with screw:
If you can use U90 pole, 2000mm long,
the budget can lower down anyway.
Our engineer recommend you using our pole mounting system,as below:
Thank you,
