WHERE INNOVATION MEETS AUTOMATION
GEOBALLAST FOUNDATION NO MORE CONCRETE
RAPID SETUP
By utilizing locally sourced quarry rock, simply drop the weight in and you’re done. No more waiting on concrete trucks, renting concrete pumps, or washing out trucks onsite. No more labor hours for setting up temporary concrete molds. No more waiting 24 hours for concrete to cure. The flow and speed of your job is 100% in your control.
The galvanized steel wire box is delivered to the site over 70% pre-assembled. Simply unfold the box, install the spiral wires and connect the anchor tubes. The Geoballast foundation is then fully assembled and can be moved to the proper position in the row and filled with quarry rock. It’s easy to assemble, stage, and stringline.
The Geoballast Foundation was developed after years of installing ballasted solar projects. Concrete, whether pre-cast or pour in place, proved to be an expensive and time-consuming method. Our innovative engineering and R&D teams developed a revolutionary process for ballasted projects. The goal was to remove all concrete and take the idea of a standard gabion basket and engineer it to excel as a ballast solution. Our highly engineered Geoballast box has the fastest installation time available, and is one of the most cost effective products on the market.
In business since 2008, APA offers a versatile line of racking and foundation solutions for projects in even the most challenging environments. With projects nationwide, APA is a trusted racking partner.
