Recommendations for Solar Companies

[Zumwalt Acres]

Hi idea network!

Anyone have recommendations for what solar companies to work with for a small farm / residential installation? And any recommendations about navigating the federal and state incentives? 

Thank you!

I have been very satisfied with the installation that Independence Renewable Energy did for me. Not sure how far they travel. Their based near me at Sandwich, IL.

Harvested solar has done small to large here. Very good.

Harvest solar built a setup for my parents so they could graze cattle around them if that is of value to you.

I’d probably call some local well companies to ask what brands they work with. Good to have an install from someone local who can troubleshoot down the road if you don’t plan to do it yourself. Maybe not something they do everyday but I’d be shocked if a decent well company couldn’t install a pre-built kit.

RPS Solar sells kits for a number of applications:
