A steel structure offers several advantages: steel is resistant to extreme weather conditions and has a high stability and load-bearing capacity, allowing the structure to withstand wind and snow loads well.
This increases the safety and durability of the entire solar installation.
In addition, steel is not susceptible to maintenance, which favors a long-term economical solution.
The flexibility of steel structures allows them to be adapted to different environments and ground conditions. They are particularly suitable for use in solar parks and on large open spaces where many solar modules are installed, due to the simple mounting design. Thanks to robust rammable profiles, no additional concrete is usually required for installation. Variants such as root systems or ground screws can also be used.
A solar substructure is essential for the installation of solar systems, as it provides the necessary stability and safety to operate the solar modules efficiently and permanently. Thanks to its robust design and flexibility, it is suitable for many applications and makes a significant contribution to sustainable energy generation.
How to plan a solar foundation project
In order to design a suitable solar foundation for a project, several aspects must be considered:
1. Site analysis
- Investigation of the ground conditions for suitable anchoring and stability.
- Analysis of climatic conditions such as wind and snow loads.
2. Material
-
Selection of materials, often steel for its strength and durability.
3. Structural strength
-
Structure must be able to support the weight of the solar panels and additional loads.
-
Stability and resistance to external influences are crucial.
4. Assembly
-
Modular design for ease of transportation and installation.
-
Construction should be able to be installed with minimum effort and in a short time.
5. Maintenance accessibility
-
Design must allow easy maintenance work, with sufficient access to solar modules and electrical components.
