Technological Advancement in Solar Energy


Understand the Development of Solar Energy

Solar energy is renewable energy, and the technology creating it that has advanced and matured. No longer are solar farms located only in barren deserts, or only in the “sunniest” states. Solar energy is now economically viable in parts of the United States where it would not have been considered only a few short years ago. 

There is a battle being waged for the market share of energy generation between “renewable energy” and natural gas companies. Many states are enacting legislation requiring that “renewables” such as solar energy make up a portion of their electrical generation. For rural landowners, this signals a unique opportunity to earn substantial long-term income from their properties. Contact us to arrange a free consultation about solar leasing for your land. 

In addition, solar technology has opened the door to “community solar” and other privately owned solar projects. Private companies, small towns, housing developments and others are building their own dedicated solar production facilities. Federal and state tax incentives, attractive MACRS depreciation schedules and lower component costs have made it more affordable than ever. Community solar and other types of private development are the gateway to reliable low-cost electricity, reducing our carbon footprint and participating in the national movement toward clean renewable energy. If you are a private enterprise or community wanting to learn more about producing your own solar power, contact us to arrange a free consultation with our design and engineering team.
