The choice between rooftop and ground-mounted solar depends on the facility’s electricity demand and available space.

Rooftop solar can make productive use of existing buildings, provided the roof is structurally suitable. Ground mounted solar panels offer another option when roof space is limited or a larger installation is required.

When evaluating solar for factory operations, comparing usable generation, construction requirements, maintenance access and connection costs is more useful than comparing installed capacity alone.
