TerraSmart, founded in 2009, is a provider of commercial to utility scale solar ground mounts. Their innovative ground screw and integrated proprietary ground-mount solar racking enables faster mounting. TerraSmart has more than 30 years of experience in structural engineering and aluminum and steel fabrication and over 10 years of experience in engineering, design and manufacturing of solar racking (having built 3.2 GW’s of ground mount solar projects).

TerraSmart offers four main products with its turnkey services:

• TerraSmart's ground screw-based fixed-tilt racking solution, GLIDE, is designed to work in any soil condition offering increased install efficiency. They have two models depending on how modules will be placed on the rack, (if on vertical/portrait (the Glide Portrait - TGP) or on horizontal/landscape position (the Glide Landscape - TGL), the lattest with bifacial module compatibility.

• The BALLAST solutions, to build its racking system on impenetrable soil conditions, specifically landfills and brownfields. The blocks are engineered to meet the requirements of specific regions and climates. Also come for mounting with portrait (up to 2 PV modules high) and landscape (up to 4 PV modules high) orientations; the lattest being able to be used with bifacial modules.

• Their tracking interface foundation which aims to eliminate many of the complications encountered with pile foundations.

• Their patent-pending tracker TerraTrak.

Depending on service and technology to be deployed.

• Ground screw The patented, forged tip of the ground screw allows the screw to be accurately installed. The spiral thread design on the TerraSmart ground screw minimizes embedment depth, which increases installation efficiency. These are finished with a superior corrosion resistant, hot-dip galvanized coating for long-lasting foundations. This technology allows ground mounting even in rocky sites.

• Installations on impenetrable soil conditions TerraSmart's ballast products allow to install PV modules on "impenetrable soil conditions", specifically landfills and brownfields. With reinforced concrete the racking system is stiff for durability but yet extremely lightweight for its hollow design. Their structure offer a tilt angle of 5° to 40° and load capacities up to 170 mph of wind speed and 100 PSF of Ground Snow Load with bifacial modules compatibility for the landscape model.

• Tracker Adaptavility The TerraTrak can be installed in places with high slopes, refusals, extreme cold and environmentally sensitive terrain.

• Turnkey approach Specialized in professional surveying, civil work, drilling, screw, racking and panel installation to deliver turnkey experience. From design concept to last glass.

• Manufacturing Eliminate outsourcing of fabrication to bring shorter times and economical solutions to solar ground mount projects.

• Lage portfolio and project customization TerraSmart approaches each project as unique, evaluating its risks to provide the most efficient solution. It also offers different products from fixed structures to trackers, adapting the racking design and required loads according to project's and customer's needs.

• Streamlined Solutions With its own fleet of machinery and by combining all contractor-based needs to one in-house process there are no subcontractors and no suppliers involved, reducing costs and time on mounting process, making communication easier, mitigating risks and ensuring the lifetime of every solar project.

• Experience To date, TerraSmart has completed over 740 utility-scale projects supporting almost 10 million modules.and has over 112 GW projects in the pipeline.
