A possibility for a smaller ballasted ground mount system is the
Sunmodo Sunturf mount. It is difficult to find info on their website
but you will find the Sunturf mount in the catalog and the
configuration too. This mount can be installed on cast in place
piers, earth screws, or concrete eco-blocks. I installed a couple of
these a few years ago: one on a large engineered concrete pad and
another on cast in place concrete blocks (similar to but smaller
than eco-blocks). It takes a lot of anchor screws.<br>

<div dir="ltr">I have experience with the APA Solar Racking
Geo Ballast system and RBI Solar's Ballasted Landfill
Solution (GM-BL). Both were simple and effective. The
APA system consists of metal cages that get built on site
and then locally sourced river rock is added via skid
steer. The RBI product uses huge, pre-cast concrete block
that get formed at a nearby facility and then are set into
place with a large telehandler. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">Both of these solutions are
manufacturer-engineered on a per-project basis and as such
have a minimum project size before they'll consider you.
So they're good options for 100kw and up projects but not
backyard systems. </div>
