Agricultural solar installations

The initial investment for solar installations in agriculture can vary depending on the size of your farm and your energy needs. However, the long-term savings are substantial, as solar energy can significantly lower your farm’s electricity costs. 

Farms and agricultural businesses may be eligible for specific grants and funding options like the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) or Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), which allow you to earn from excess energy fed back into the grid. Solar installations can also qualify for agricultural tax reliefs, making it a highly cost-efficient option. 

By integrating solar power, you can reduce reliance on fossil fuels, protect your farm from rising energy costs, and contribute to sustainability initiatives without sacrificing productivity. Solar panels can also be installed in areas that support biodiversity, allowing wildlife to thrive while your farm harnesses clean energy.
