What it is

A solar trailer that pays for itself.

Same idea as a generator. But it runs on sunlight, makes no noise, and the fuel bill is zero. We drop it on your land, plug in your pumps and parlor, and walk you through the rebates.

It shows up on a flatbed.

One container. Solar panels fold out. Batteries are inside. Same footprint as a small grain bin — about 30 feet long.

2

We hook it up the same morning.

Plugs into your existing panel. Runs your milking parlor, cooler, irrigation pumps, shop — whatever you tell us is on the line.

3

When the sun's down, the battery takes over.

Stores enough to run through the night. If you have grid or a backup generator, it leans on those when it has to. You don't think about it.

4

If something breaks, we fix it.

Monitored from our shop. Most issues we see before you do. Service and parts are covered for the length of the rental.

What you'll save

Move the slider. That's your check.

Tell us what you spend on diesel or grid power each month. We'll show you what stays in your pocket.

From the parlor to the back forty.

Same trailer, different jobs.

Through grid outages
Dairy & livestock

Through grid outages

Rotary parlors, milk cooling, fans, lights — they keep running when the wires go down.

Pumps without diesel hauls
Irrigation

Pumps without diesel hauls

Bore pumps and pivots, day or night, no fuel deliveries to a back 40.

Drying, cooling, storage
Grain & cold chain

Drying, cooling, storage

Grain dryers, walk-in coolers, processing rooms — steady power, no spikes on your bill.

Welders, lifts, lighting
Shop & yard

Welders, lifts, lighting

Heavy draw on your shop tools without tripping the panel or running a generator all day.

Power past the line
Off-grid corners

Power past the line

New barn, fence chargers, well — places where running new wire from the meter just isn't practical.

Storms, fires, outages
Backup

Storms, fires, outages

When the grid drops, the parlor doesn't. Critical loads stay up while neighbors go dark.

From the pilot site

"Predicted 81 kWh a day; we were doing 89. The parlor never blinked through the monitored window. The numbers held up better than the spec sheet said they would."
