This 2.7MW ground-mounted solar project in Ximushan features a large photovoltaic array supported by a ground screw foundation and solar racking system. The project shows how a screw-based foundation can be integrated into the layout of a utility-scale ground-mounted PV installation.
Project Overview
- Project: Ximushan
- System capacity: 2.7MW
- Application: Ground-mounted photovoltaic system
- Foundation type: Ground screw foundation system
- Mounting solution: Ground-mounted solar racking system
The Ximushan project uses a dedicated ground area for the PV array. The modules are arranged in structured rows, with the racking layout planned around foundation positions, row spacing, site access and the requirements of installation and future maintenance.
Ground Screw Foundation for Solar Mounting
Ground screw foundations provide support points for the solar mounting structure without relying on a conventional concrete foundation layout. The actual foundation design depends on the site investigation, ground conditions, structural loads and project requirements.
For a large ground-mounted solar project, the screw positions need to work with the module layout and the direction of each racking row. A clear installation plan helps the site team coordinate the foundation work, mounting structure and module installation in the correct sequence.
Planning a Ground-Mounted PV System
Before finalising a ground-mounted PV system, project teams should review the site levels, soil conditions, drainage, local wind loads, module specifications and maintenance access. These factors affect the foundation arrangement, racking configuration and the way materials are prepared for installation.
The spacing between module rows also needs to be practical for inspection, vegetation control, cleaning and routine maintenance. A consistent layout makes the PV array easier to build and gives the operating team a clear reference for future site work.
2.7MW Solar Racking Layout
The 2.7MW Ximushan project uses a regular row layout across the available installation area. The ground screw foundation system and solar racking structure work together to support the module array and maintain a consistent arrangement across the site.
Using a defined racking layout helps coordinate the installation process from the foundation stage through to module mounting. It also supports clear access between rows after the project enters operation.
