What Are The Benefits of Agricultural Solar?


Many farms, wineries, and other agricultural businesses use solar energy to power their day-to-day operations. Thanks to investments from the Solar Energy Technologies Office, the cost of installing solar systems has decreased, leading to additional installations throughout the country.

Benefits of Ag Solar

  • Installing a leased solar system requires zero upfront capital costs.
  • Solar panels can be installed on marginal agricultural lands to generate a new source of revenue to offset operating costs and provide greater resiliency during poor growing conditions. 
  • Solar systems can be strategically placed in locations that don’t interfere with crop production. 
  • Co-location of crops and solar installations can be designed to maximize electricity and production yields. 
  • Solar panels can provide shade for crops in areas that are typically exposed to full sunlight.

I want to start by saying this is a no bull testimonial. I was referred to A.M. by a respected neighbor. I followed the recommendation for my residential installation. Our home PG&E rates had begun to increase at a rate we could not ignore.  

Having already received another bid from another company, A.M. Sun Solar did a better job in the presentation of project and finance options. At time for install I was pleased to get honest timing and work schedules and completion dates. All went as smooth as could have been desired. My family’s life was not disrupted and all enjoyed the professionalism of the A.M Sun Solar technicians. 

Upon project completion at my home I began to inquire about quotes with the commercial division of A.M. Sun Solar for my winery.  I had similar PG&E rate increases that were punishing. The presentation and scope of the project was again straightforward and professional.  My decision to proceed with the project at the winery was simple with the manner A.M. Solar does business.  On schedule, great communication of progress and completion dates.

Bottom line Paso Robles sunshine is meant to be harvested. Savings are real and a great move for treading a bit lighter on old Mother Earth  A.M Sun Solar has earned my referrals and repeat business."
