Agricultural Solar Power For Central California

Solar farms have made a large debut in the agricultural industry over the last decade, bringing stability to ranchers and farmers whose livelihood is otherwise incredibly susceptible to spikes in the cost of electricity, natural gas, and oil. Not only that, but solar technology is also revolutionizing the way farmers operate by powering their buildings, greenhouses, barns, and even some heavy machinery with free, renewable energy. Solar energy is also used in agriculture to power lights, heating systems, and electric fences, while solar water pumps are making it possible for farmers to regain energy independence, rather than relying on expensive diesel generators.

Is Agricultural Solar Worth It?

Before the development of large-scale solar farms for agricultural use, ranchers and farmers had little choice but to rely on utility companies to power nearly all of their operations. From greenhouse heating, water pumping, and pesticide spraying to lighting livestock barns, powering processing facilities, and nearly everything else they do, agricultural businesses were some of the biggest consumers of non-renewable energy. But now, custom solar energy systems have been designed to serve the needs of farmers and ranchers so they, too, can reduce their carbon footprint and energy bills while maximizing efficiency and bringing in more money.
