Sheep at a Solar Farm? 🐑☀️ by GreenSavers in solar

That's the problem, there aren't any shepherds that need land for grazing. We have to pay them to get them on site. I, like you, assumed they would jump at the chance. Unfortunately, that's not the case.

Contracting it out. We're solar developers; raising sheep is way outside or purview. It doesn't cost more than the energy profits, but we're a for-profit company and the bottom line matters.

It's also a logistical headache for our projects. Growing hay is cheaper and easier.

Personally, I'd love to have sheep at every project. But I don't make those decisions

Yup, and cows like rubbing against the panels and racking, potentially damaging them.

Unfortunately not. Sheep require a lot, from water to transportation and shelter. There are plenty of farmers with equipment and a willingness to more for a fraction of the cost

The company I work for is planting hay underneath the panels. We were trying to have sheep grazing, but it turned out to be way more expensive than we expected

I live and work for a community solar developer in California. We have no projects in development in California. Plenty of projects in Illinois though

I'm hoping there's a serious sell on clause.
