Large Scale Solar (Ground Mounted) refers to utility-scale photovoltaic systems installed on open land to generate large amounts of electricity for the national grid or large industrial consumption. Unlike rooftop systems, ground-mounted solar farms provide greater flexibility in system design, allowing panels to be installed at the optimal tilt and orientation to capture maximum sunlight. This enables higher energy production and efficient large-scale renewable energy generation.

In Malaysia, ground-mounted Large Scale Solar projects are regulated by the Energy Commission and are commonly awarded through competitive bidding programs such as LSS1 to LSS5. These projects contribute significantly to the country’s renewable energy targets by reducing reliance on fossil fuels while strengthening long-term energy security. By utilizing unused land or dedicated solar fields, ground-mounted solar farms provide a sustainable and scalable solution to meet the growing demand for clean electricity.
