We speak with Ryan Kelliher, VP of Renewable Solutions at Tradition Energy and Executive Director of the American Solar Grazing Association (ASGA). We discuss why:
- Solar grazing is beneficial for farmers and rural communities
- Sheep grazing is helpful for the permitting of solar projects, as it aligns incentives for the developer and the farmer and reduces community opposition.
- The lack of sheep in the US is a challenge for solar grazing, but the potential opportunity for farmers is significant.
- it is important of building emotional relationships with the local community to reduce community opposition to solar projects.
- And much more!
