Today, they're turning to the sun as a dependable source of energy and income, as operations become more electricity-dependent and exported electricity rises in value. Grain drying, refrigeration, machinery, food production facilities and holiday accommodation all contribute to growing electricity use across rural operations. Combined with rising energy prices, generating power on-site is no longer simply an environmental consideration, it's now central to farm resilience.
