Ag Energy Workshop Featuring Ag Solar

Wednesday, October 22, 2025, 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Ag Energy Farm Efficiency: Learn how to identify and prioritize on-farm energy efficiency opportunities to lower costs and improve operations. We'll introduce practical tools and resources developed by Ag Energy NY to help better understand energy use and explore energy-saving technologies. Gain insights on how to connect with service providers and access available grants, loans, and rebates—making energy upgrades more accessible and affordable.

Lunch & Networking

Ag Solar & Agrivoltarics: Understand how solar energy can be integrated into your agricultural operations—whether through powering farm equipment, reducing hot water costs, or leasing land for solar development. Explore key considerations for farm-scale and large-scale solar projects, including how to evaluate lease agreements, navigate permitting and siting processes, and address common concerns like land use and panel safety.

We’ll also discuss emerging opportunities in agrivoltaics, where land is used for both farming and solar energy production.
