Which is preferable: roof-mounted or ground-mounted? Rooftop solar panels typically take up less space and can utilize the existing infrastructure of the house. This saves land resources and integrates with the architecture of the building. However, rooftop installation and maintenance can be more complex and require additional installation and maintenance costs.
Ground-mounted solar panels, on the other hand, can be easier to install and maintain. They may be a better solution for larger sites or where the roof is not suitable for panel installation due to the orientation or structure of the building. However, such placement requires additional land space and infrastructure for connectivity.

I believe that placing solar panels on the ground may be preferable in some cases. I have a large plot of land, and I chose to install them on the ground because this allows for better control over the orientation and tilt of the panels to maximize sunlight capture. In addition, this approach makes it easier to access the panels for maintenance and cleaning.
