Ground-Mounted Solar Farm Installation with Full Utility Integration
Crigger Power installs ground-mounted solar farms for utility-scale, private, and commercial clients across the U.S. Our team manages site layout, trenchless conduit installation, and power routing using in-house equipment and no subcontractors. Each build is designed for fast tie-in and long-term system performance—delivered on grade, on time, and without rework.
We handle the entire installation process from trenchless boring to pad placement, grounding, and conduit pullback. Every crew is Crigger-trained, and every piece of equipment is ours.
When solar farms require clean utility corridors and precise execution across challenging terrain, we install them right.
What Are ‘Ground Mounts?’
Ground mounts are solar panel systems installed at grade level rather than on rooftops or elevated structures. They are anchored directly into the earth using driven piles, ballast systems, or screw foundations. This configuration allows for greater layout flexibility, easier access for maintenance, and optimal orientation for sun exposure.
Ground-mounted solar systems are often used in large-scale applications like utility farms, battery storage sites, and commercial facilities with open land. They allow for consistent panel spacing, scalable utility tie-ins, and trenchless conduit installation below the surface.
Crigger Power installs these systems with the full underground package—conduit, grounding, and boring included—to keep everything clean and ready to connect.
Other Solar Farm Contractor Services for Utility Integration
Solar site development doesn’t end with panel installation. Crigger Power handles full-service solar farm construction, repair, and maintenance using in-house crews and equipment. We support large-scale energy builds across rural, commercial, and enterprise sites—installing the underground infrastructure that connects panels, batteries, and substations without delay or subcontractor confusion.
These services cover every stage of the project life cycle, keeping energy output steady and infrastructure clean, buried, and on grade.
Solar Farm Installation FAQs
Installing a ground-mounted solar farm involves far more than placing panels in rows. Clients across the utility, agricultural, and commercial sectors rely on Crigger Power to handle trenchless utility boring, conduit layout, and underground tie-ins that make these systems work.
These FAQs break down key details about what goes into a successful installation, how we manage subsurface challenges, and what to expect when building at scale. For deeper insights, visit our full Blog and FAQs library.
Several ground-level and subsurface conditions influence solar farm layout and utility routing. Soil type, slope, drainage patterns, and access to transmission infrastructure all impact design and installation speed. Crigger Power evaluates these conditions early to determine boring paths, conduit depth, and grade stability.
In areas with loose soil, rock, or unstable terrain, our trenchless crews adjust boring equipment and layout accordingly. We drill clean utility paths without surface disruption, even in locations with limited access or strict environmental restrictions.
Most large-scale solar projects require multiple buried utility systems, including:
- Conduit Lines: Power, data, and low-voltage cables must be buried between panel rows and substations
- Battery Tie-Ins: Connection points for backup or off-grid storage installations
- Grounding Systems: Electrical grounding must be properly routed and buried to meet code
- Drainage Infrastructure: Many solar sites include underground drainage to protect panel mounts from erosion
Each of these systems is bored and installed by our crews to keep the job on spec and on grade.
Yes, but the process requires trenchless boring expertise and precise layout adjustments. Crigger Power has installed solar farms on slopes, in rocky soil, and across irregular sites by adjusting bore depth, path, and conduit placement to match the terrain.
Our in-house equipment and real-time grade control systems allow us to maintain accuracy without delays or rework. We’ve bored through clay, sand, and rock to deliver utility paths beneath panels, access roads, and pre-existing infrastructure without excavation.
Ground mount solar farms are built by a wide range of clients across industries, including:
- Agricultural Operations: For irrigation systems, barns, and remote energy independence
- Commercial Property Owners: Seeking long-term utility savings or off-grid capability
- Utility Providers: Expanding grid access or developing new solar-based supply fields
- Municipal Entities: Including schools, water districts, or city-led sustainability projects
- Private Investors: Leasing solar fields to power companies or corporations
Our crews support every client type with the same process-driven, in-house execution model.
Timelines vary based on site access, terrain, system size, and permit timelines. Most small to mid-sized farms take several weeks to install, with utility boring and trenchless work often completed in the first phase.
Crigger Power accelerates timelines by eliminating handoffs. We don’t outsource utility work or rely on rented rigs. Our crews manage boring, layout, and tie-ins under one roof, reducing delays and keeping projects on pace.
Contact Crigger Power for Solar Farm Utility Boring
Crigger Power installs underground conduit systems for solar farm builds across commercial, utility, and private sites. Our crews bore through rock, fill, and unstable terrain to create clean subsurface routes for power lines, grounding, and battery tie-ins—without excavation or surface disruption.
We manage the entire process in-house using our own equipment, from layout and access planning to bore alignment and conduit pullback. No rental gear. No subcontractors. Just high-precision utility boring delivered on grade and ready for energizing.
