Early Stage Deal
ROI : 141%-244%
System Size : 842.4 kW

The almond orchard at 5013 East Highway 4 Road, Farmington, CA is a major agricultural operation considering the benefits of adding a solar energy system. The property spans 386 acres of farmland, with a core 110-acre almond ranch planted with premium varieties such as Non-Pareil, Monterey, and Wood Colony. The orchard depends on a high-capacity irrigation system, including a deep agricultural well capable of producing about 1,250 gallons per minute through micro-sprinklers and drip hoses. While this ensures healthy crop production, it also drives high energy use, making renewable energy integration both financially and operationally advantageous.
