Document Description
This project will install two off-grid ground-mounted solar photovoltaic energy systems to provide power for an existing on-site electric irrigation pump and a small building, two new electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, and a battery storage system. System 1 includes two approximately 56-foot long, 27 kilowatt arrays and an EV charger located on the northwest side of the property on the roundabout made by the access roads. System 1 will power the well irrigation pump and EV charger. System 2 includes an approximately 32-foot long, 9 kilowatt array with 20-kilowatt-hour battery system located at the southwest end of the farm on an existing employee parking lot.. System 2 will power the adjacent office and storage/packing house and new EV charger. The EV charging stations will serve electric farm carts. Installation of the solar energy systems will require some minor grading, trenching, and compaction of conduit runs to connect the well pump conduit, control panel, and EV charging stations. The project will be constructed to avoid impacts to harvesting and fanning activities.
