Immediate Savings, Long-Term Payback

Solar starts paying you back from day one. Lower electric bills, valuable tax savings, and income from SRECs combine to deliver instant ROI for your farm. And unlike equipment that demands constant upkeep and man-hours, your solar investment quietly works in the background—soaking up the sun and putting hard-earned money back in your pocket.

We Guarantee It

Our Triple Ten Guarantee protects your investment. If your system produces less than we promised in the first 10 years, we’ll write you a check for the difference.

Choosing the Wrong Installer Can Cost You More

Many farmers try to save a few dollars upfront, only to lose much more later. Here’s what can go wrong:

  • Poor Design & Subpar Workmanship
    A system not designed for your farm’s needs can underperform, drive up maintenance costs, and cut into your ROI.
  • Weak Warranties
    Manufacturer warranties alone won’t protect you. Without a production guarantee and installer workmanship coverage, you’re left paying the bill if problems arise.
  • Unreliability
    Unreliable installers turn savings into losses, leaving your system unsupported and your business stuck with wasted time, costly repairs, and unnecessary frustrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are solar panels dangerous to animals?

Solar panels don’t pose any immediate danger to animals. No harmful radiation or chemicals are emitted. However, curious animals can chew on wires, exposing them to the threat of electric shock.

How is solar ownership different from leasing your land for a solar farm?

With Solar Ownership, you have direct control over the electricity generated by the solar panels. This production offsets the electricity used on your farm. Ownership also gives you all the tax incentives, grants, and long-term savings.

Solar land leases represent a partnership between a landowner and a solar developer. In this arrangement, the developer is granted the right to utilize the land for the installation of photovoltaic (PV) panels.

The landowner doesn’t directly benefit from the electricity produced by these systems. Their advantage lies in the income garnered from leasing their land to the solar developer.

What warranties are included with a solar system?

Solar panels come with a performance warranty that guarantees the efficiency will stay above a specified percent. These warranties range from 25 to 30 years, depending on the brand.

Solar panels also come with a product warranty. These range from 12 to 25 years in length.

Inverters come with a warranty of 12 to 25 years depending on the brand and type.

In addition to manufacturer warranties, Paradise Energy provides an added layer of security with our Triple Ten Guarantee. This guarantees the production of the system for the first 10 years. It also covers workmanship issues.

How long do solar panels last?

Most solar panels’ performance is guaranteed for 25 – 30 years, but panels will go on to produce electricity for longer than that. The first 30 years after your solar installation is considered the system’s “useful life”, but panels can still produce electricity for decades longer. In fact, the world’s first modern solar panel is still producing electricity at the ripe age of 60!

How much maintenance or upkeep is required?

PV solar systems require very little maintenance over their 30+-year lifespan. Unless your solar system has bad parts, was installed incorrectly, or an outside factor causes damage to the system, there’s little maintenance needed to keep your solar system running.

Plus, if something goes wrong, there is a good chance it will be under warranty. Your panels and inverters come with lengthy warranties from the manufacturers.

Paradise Energy adds an additional layer of security with our Triple Ten Guarantee. This guarantees the production and workmanship for the first 10 years. 

Here’s more on solar panel maintenance.

How much do solar panels cost?

There is no clear-cut answer to how much do solar panels cost without first gathering your electric usage and information from the installation site. The reason is, there are many variables to consider when installing a solar system, including how much electricity you use and need to produce, the type of installation, shading, and more. 

An average monthly electric bill of $120 will need a 10 kW solar system in most cases. This will cost roughly $33,240 before incentives and $23,268 after the incentives are used. A $600 average monthly electric bill will need a 50 kW solar system. A 50 kW will cost roughly $133,300 before incentives and $63,771 after all the incentives are used.
