WHY WORK WITH PRI ENGINEERING
At PRI Engineering, we bring deep geotechnical expertise to solar foundation design—engineered for performance and longevity in any environment. From the icy extremes of the Canadian Arctic to humid Caribbean climates, our designs are optimized to meet the demands of both site conditions and project size.
With involvement in over 400 solar energy projects from 0.12 MW to over 500 MW, we’ve supported full project lifecycles—from permitting and design to inspection and remediation. Our team’s approach integrates frost load optimization using regional climate data, field load testing, and rigorous quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) protocols.
Whether your solar development is in the Northeast U.S. or beyond, we reduce your construction risk, avoid unnecessary capital expenditures, and help deliver projects on time and on budget.

GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING FOR YOUR SOLAR PROJECTS
GEOTECHNICAL DESKTOP STUDY
Our team will conduct a thorough review of the site’s topography and existing groundwater table studies. This initial assessment helps in understanding the site's hydrogeological context.
GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
Our unified geotechnical and structural engineering team provides an integrated foundation while considering racking design and constraints that can be further optimized via site specific pile load testing programs at your request.
Our personnel’s involvement in the design of solar PV plants has included full design, QA/QC, peer reviews, Engineering of Record services, and acting as the Owner’s Engineer.
