A solar array anywhere other than on your house or barn is a waste of land.

Better to put them at ground level, easier to maintain, doesn't screw up your roof, etc

Which then takes up quite a lot of valuable square footage, that needs to be placed decently far from trees or anything that'll shade 'em.

One overlooks the advantages of solar on a roof in that your attic stays 20 degrees cooler in the heat of the summer day.

Savings from that too.
