Straightforward Solar for Working Farms

You take care of the field. We take care of the power.

Since 2004, our locally-owned company has guided hundreds of agribusiness owners to go solar and reduce their operating expenses. Solar provides a way to achieve energy independence, offset energy bills, insure against rising energy costs and diversify revenue streams. All while still farming. During the past two decades we’ve installed both ground mounts and roof solar systems for farmers including on Cattle Barns, Poultry Houses, Winery Production Facilities, and more!

What Can Solar Do for a Farm?

Farmers and Land Owners Invest in Solar for Many Reasons

Lower operating costs so more farm income stays on the farm.
Reduce utility dependence and protect the operation from rising power costs and outages.
Reliable, low-maintenance energy that supports the farm for decades.
Keep critical systems running when storms and severe weather hit.
Protect the land while producing food and power side by side.

Agrivoltaics FAQs

Do farms qualify for the 30% federal solar tax credit?

Yes. Many farms can qualify for the federal 30% Investment Tax Credit (ITC) when purchasing eligible solar systems. Additional incentives or depreciation benefits may also apply depending on ownership structure and project type. Incentives can change over time, so it’s important to review current eligibility with a tax advisor.

Is my farm a good candidate for solar?

Most farms are strong candidates for solar. Key factors include available land or roof space, sunlight exposure, energy usage patterns, utility rates, and the condition of barns or other structures. A site visit and energy review can determine the best fit for your operation.

Do you offer financing options like leases or Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)?

Yes. We offer flexible options including direct ownership, leases, and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), depending on your goals and location. These structures help farms choose the approach that best fits cash flow, tax strategy, and long-term operating plans.

Will installing solar disrupt farm operations?

Projects are planned around the realities of working farms. Construction can be scheduled to avoid planting, harvest, grazing rotations, or busy production periods. Our team works closely with farm operators to minimize interruptions and keep the operation moving.

How much can farms typically save with solar?

Solar can significantly reduce and stabilize energy costs for decades. Savings depend on electric usage, utility rates, available space, and project structure. Many farms use solar to lower overhead for irrigation, refrigeration, ventilation, grain drying, poultry houses, dairies, and other energy-intensive needs.

Can solar help keep the farm running during outages?

Yes. Solar can be paired with battery storage or backup systems to support critical loads during outages. This can help keep wells, pumps, refrigeration, ventilation, communications, and other essential equipment operating when severe weather or grid issues occur.

How long do solar systems last?

Solar systems are built for 25-30+ years of dependable performance with minimal maintenance. Modern equipment includes long-term warranties and is designed to provide predictable energy production for decades.

What if I plan to replace a barn roof or expand facilities?

Solar planning should include evaluating the condition and remaining life of roofs and future expansion plans. If upgrades are planned, project timing can be coordinated so improvements happen first and the solar system is built to match long-term farm needs.

Can I still farm the land with agrivoltaics?

Yes. Agrivoltaics are designed to keep land productive while adding solar generation. Depending on the layout, land can continue to support grazing, pollinator habitat, specialty crops, or other agricultural uses alongside solar.

How long does a farm solar project take?

Most projects move from evaluation to installation in 6-12 months, depending on permitting, utility approvals, engineering, equipment lead times, and construction schedules. Larger or more complex agrivoltaic projects may take longer.
