Not every roof is the right place for solar — this hillside property called for a ground-mount system instead. Our crew set steel piers into concrete footings on the slope and built out an aluminum rail racking system engineered to hold the array at the correct tilt on uneven, wooded terrain.

The finished array uses 60 high-efficiency 390W panels for a 23.4kW system, mounted low-profile against the hillside so it blends into the landscaping rather than dominating the view.

For storage, we installed three FoxESS battery units for a combined 59.55kWh of capacity, along with the disconnects and interconnection equipment needed to tie the system into the home's electrical service. That's enough storage to cover heavy daily usage and ride through extended PG&E outages.
