Solar for Dairy Farms in Northern New York
Dairy operations are strong solar candidates because milking, cooling, and ventilation run every day of the year. Murrock Farms’ 304-panel system was sized to offset about half the electricity of a fully automated milking facility, using equipment-shed roof space that was otherwise idle. It joins a growing set of agricultural solar projects we have installed across New York.
