Energy Solutions for Agriculture & Farming

California agriculture depends on reliable, affordable energy for irrigation pumping, cold storage, processing, and daily operations. Solar is ideally suited for agricultural applications—land is available, energy consumption aligns with solar production, and rural utilities often have the highest rates. We design systems that work around farming operations and harsh conditions.

Industry Challenges

  • High irrigation pumping costs
  • Cold storage energy intensity
  • Remote locations with limited grid
  • Seasonal operational variations
  • Dust, debris, and harsh conditions
  • Water availability and well pumping

Key Benefits

  • Reduce energy costs by 35-55%
  • Power irrigation at near-zero cost
  • Utilize non-productive land
  • Protect cold storage with backup power
  • Hedge against utility rate increases
  • Meet buyer sustainability requirements

Tailored Solutions for Agriculture & Farming

Ground-Mount Solar Arrays

Utilize non-productive land for solar installations. Single-axis tracking maximizes production for irrigation loads.

Solar-Powered Irrigation

Directly power well pumps and irrigation systems, reducing or eliminating pumping costs during growing season.

Cold Storage Solutions

Solar with battery storage for packing houses and cold storage facilities, reducing demand charges and providing backup.

Agrivoltaics

Elevated solar panels over crops providing shade for heat-sensitive plants while generating power.
