100+ Acres and Utility Scale Solar Farm
Hi BP family. I am wondering if anyone in the community has insights on utility scale solar farms developments. My family owns 100+ acres in TN and we are in the early stages of exploring our options. I am currently reading Solar Farms by Susan Neill, Geoff Stapleton, et al. to gain a baseline understanding of the industry and whether our property is ideal for a solar farm. Based on the book, a key component that impacts whether the project will be successful is to identify an experienced EPC company/group and a broker to help on the financial side.
I am reaching out to the community to ask if anyone knows of resources (books, articles, examples, contacts) that could help layout the entire process from land assessment, leasing our land versus purchasing and operating the farm on our own, finances, timeline, etc.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
