Solar Carports & Ground Mount Custom Solar Arrays in Columbus, Ohio

Not every property is suited for a rooftop solar system. That’s where solar carports and custom ground mount arrays come in, and they’re a smart, often better alternative for many homes and commercial properties around Columbus.

At BC Solar, we specialize in designing and installing these systems with the same integrity, precision, and custom approach you expect from a local partner who does things the right way.

Why Choose a Solar Carport or Ground Mount?

These setups are ideal when:

• Your roof doesn’t face the right direction or lacks sun exposure.

• You don’t want panels on your home or building.

• You want to generate more power than your roof can support

• You need a system designed for long-term flexibility or scalability

Solar Carports serve double-duty, they generate clean power and provide shaded, weather-protected parking for vehicles. For homeowners, they’re great over driveways. For businesses, they’re perfect for employee or customer lists.

Ground Mount Systems are fully customizable. We can angle and orient them perfectly to maximize energy production, something you can’t always do with a roof.

Built to Last. Built for You.

BC Solar’s carport and ground mount systems are:

• Engineered for Ohio weather, rain, snow, hail, and high winds

• Custom-sized to your land, energy needs, and future growth

• Battery-ready and designed for grid-tied or off-grid setups

• Made with quality racking and foundations, concrete, helical, or driven piers based on soil and site

From farms and homes in rural areas to urban businesses with tight lots, we’ve installed it all.

We Don't Push Panels. We Engineer Solutions.

Brian Zaayer, BC Solar’s owner, personally oversees every system. That means no pushy sales, no one-size-fits-all layouts, and no shortcuts. We design every ground array or carport with:

• Local code compliance and permitting are handled for you

• Accurate modeling of year-round solar output

• Clear ROI estimates and maintenance expectations

FAQs

Do I need a lot of land for a ground mount?
Not necessarily. Even small yards can host efficient systems. We’ll assess your site for the best fit.

Can carports be added over existing driveways or lots?
Yes. We can retrofit structures or install new ones from scratch. We’ll advise on structural and utility considerations.

Will a ground mount produce more power than a roof system?
Often, yes, because we can position the panels at the ideal tilt and direction.
