Overview
Planted Solar is a platform for smarter solar deployment integrating terrain-following arrays, field automation, and powerful software into a single, unified solution for the most reliable and lowest-cost power plants. The terawatt era of solar demands more. We're building the platform to meet it. After years of building and scaling projects and solar technology, we saw how conventional ground-mount deployment--with its long timelines, rigid designs, and fragmented workflows--was holding the industry back. So we set out to fix it.
