Ground Mounted Solar Panels Sheffield
MCS Certified Installation Specialists
We design and install ground-mounted solar panel systems across Sheffield, South Yorkshire and Yorkshire, helping homes, farms and businesses generate clean, renewable electricity.
Why Choose Ground Mounted Solar Panels?
Not every property is suitable for roof-mounted solar panels. Limited roof space, shading or an ageing roof can make a ground-mounted solar PV system a more practical solution. By installing solar panels on suitable land, you can generate renewable electricity while keeping your roof clear for future maintenance or alterations.
At Sheffield Renewables, we assess your available land, energy usage and property layout before designing a ground-mounted solar PV system to suit your requirements. Whether you’re looking to reduce your electricity bills, power a farm or business, or prepare for battery storage and EV charging, we’ll recommend the most suitable solution for reliable, long-term performance.
Could Ground Mounted Solar Be the Right Choice?
Ground-mounted solar is ideal for properties where installing solar panels on the roof isn’t practical or where additional space is available for a larger solar PV system.
A professional site survey will help determine whether a ground-mounted installation is suitable. You may benefit from ground-mounted solar if:
- Your roof isn't suitable for solar panels
- You have available land, a large garden or paddock
- You're looking to install a larger solar PV system
- Trees or neighbouring buildings create roof shadingv
- You're planning battery storage or EV charging

Common Questions About Ground-Mounted Solar
Need more information? Call our friendly team on 0114 201 0351 for expert advice and we’ll be happy to help.
Do I need planning permission for ground-mounted solar panels?
Planning requirements depend on the size, location and design of the installation. Some domestic ground-mounted solar systems may fall under permitted development rights if they meet the relevant criteria, while others will require planning permission. We’ll advise you on any planning requirements during your site survey.
Can ground-mounted solar panels be installed on sloping ground?
Yes. Ground-mounted solar panels can often be installed on gently sloping land, provided the site is suitable. During our survey, we’ll assess the ground conditions and recommend the most appropriate mounting system for your property.
How much land do I need for a ground-mounted solar PV system?
The amount of land required depends on the size of the solar PV system and your electricity usage. We’ll assess your available space and recommend a layout that makes the best use of your land while meeting your energy requirements.
Can I still use the land around my solar panels?
Yes. In most cases, the surrounding land can continue to be used for gardens, paddocks or other suitable purposes, provided safe access to the solar PV system is maintained for inspection and maintenance.
Can I expand my ground-mounted solar system in the future?
If you’re considering future expansion, we’ll take this into account during the design stage and advise what’s possible based on the available space, electrical capacity and your energy requirements.
