Solar: Dramatic Savings for CA Farmers

Solar water pumping makes more sense than ever

     Solar panel prices are at an historical low. Additionally, high power rates, tax incentives and proven, simple system designs make going solar the best way to cut operating costs for California farmers. Right now, drilling wells and equipping them with solar water pumping systems is an ideal way to slash water and power costs.

Larry Slominski

Recently, Larry Slominski and David Brands worked projects with two California farmers that has vastly improved their profits despite external market variables. Drilling for their own water, digging their own reservoirs and pumping that water with solar power is vastly reducing their operating costs today and for years to come. This method, when feasible, cuts costs normally paid to water authorities while it slashes the power costs normally paid to the local utility. Water and power where it's needed, when it's needed. Now, this cutting-edge method is available to all SoCal farmers through LTS Energy.

Sunshine is free... Take it!

Investing in solar electricity can pay for itself in under five years where utility rates are high and sunshine is plentiful. Better yet, solar water pumping systems are as reliable as tomorrow's sunrise and not dependent upon fickle breezes required for water pumping windmills.   Alternatively, with no investment, a farm can secure low-cost solar power for more than 25 years; saving up to 50% on electricity costs. In this dicey economy, there is no better way to increase profits and farm valuation.

Are you interested in:
  • Dramatically cutting water and electricity costs?
  • Increasing your farm's value without property tax increases?
  • An investment that produces year after year for 30 years and more?
  • A way to hedge against future utility rate hikes?
  • Setting an example for future generations?


LTS Energy will help get you there.
    Larry Slominski has spearheaded several megawatt-plus projects for farmers, water authorities, car washes and even major airports around the US. His expertise in solar and energy-related fields dates back to 1977. The LTS Energy approach is entirely grid-tied solar PV systems that eliminate the need for costly and troublesome battery banks. We also consider utilizing labor already available on your farm.
