Farms/Ranches/Agricultural
Ranches and farms throughout the San Francisco Bay area can benefit
from the use of solar electricity technologies, since they can:
- Take advantage of the tremendous rebates now in place by California
agencies (CEC, CPUC)
- Place the solar electric array on a ground mount or tracker
for maximum solar exposure and maximum electric production
- If there is enough land, and sufficient wind, install a 10kW
small wind electric system on a 120 foot tower for half the cost
of solar electric
- Augment the solar or wind system with backup battery power for
24/7 operation, regardless of the weather
- Utilize the Federal tax incentives in place for solar electricity
(10% ITC, 5 year accelerated depreciation)
- Convert machinery (well pumps, heating, etc.) from other sources
of power (propane, natural gas, gasoline, diesel) to cheaper,
cleaner solar electric power
