Historically, agriculture has been the dominant industry for farmers. As of 2021, a dynamic change is taking place on farms throughout New Zealand. Solar farms are being utilised nationwide for their ability to generate clean energy for communities, along with reliable and steady income for landowners. What is a solar farm?
Running a farm in New Zealand means dealing with rising power costs, unreliable grid supply, and increasing pressure to prove your environmental credentials. Solar panels for farms offer a practical solution to all three challenges.
Anecdotally there are already regions of NZ where farmers want to develop modest sized solar farms but are locked out of the market because the grid already has adequate supply. Australia initially subsidized rooftop solar and now often has an oversupply of electricity in the middle of the day.
The solar farm is owned by Kea Energy, a family owned business operating out of Canterbury. Kea Energy owns and operates 14 renewable energy plants throughout the South Island, this includes hydro-turbines and solar power systems. Kapanu Solar Farm - Image Source: Sunergise
