Contact us to discuss your solar farm project today and and learn how we can help you with specialised foundations and piling. Solar Pile International is the world's largest supplier of specialised solar farm foundations and piling.
Solar Pile International (SPI) was established to provide specialised solar farm foundations, piling and technology to the global solar farm industry. We provide a range of products from standard solar farm beams to our patented Solar X Piles. The company began as a partnership between Blade Pile Group (BPG) & BCI Engineering.
As the demand for renewable energy increases—solar farms are becoming an ideal market for pile driving contractors due to the need for stable, long-lasting foundations that can support large-scale solar installations.
Because they represent a major investment, solar panels must be able to withstand the harshest weather conditions and have a long lifespan. With their durable and solid design, galvanized steel screw piles offer the most cost-effective solution for anchoring solar panels for the long-term.
Once the equipment is in place, the driving of the piles begins using the selected method—whether impact, vibratory, press-in, or screw piling. Throughout this process, close monitoring is conducted to ensure that the piles are installed vertically and at the correct angle.
This expertise, alongside BCI Engineering’s extensive experience in utility scale solar farm procurement makes SPI a formidable participant in the field of solar farm foundations and piling around the world.

Yellow Jacket Pile Sleeves: Cut Downdrag Force by 60%
Yellow Jacket® is a patent protected* prefabricated friction reduction pile sleeve utilized to reduce downdrag forces on piling embedded behind Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls. The addition of MSE wall construction backfill creates a surcharge on the underlying soils that inevitably settles to some degree, resulting in negative shaft resistance on the piles.
