Solar Lights for Farmers

Technological innovations are bringing changes to both large-scale agribusiness and small, family-owned farms. Those innovations include rapid progress in the trend toward solar lighting systems for farmers. Whether your farm or ranch is utilized for crops, cattle, livestock, or a combination of those, solar for farmers is now a viable and cost-effective lighting solution through Greenshine’s commercial solar systems.

Advantages of Solar Lighting for Farmers

Greenshine New Energy has been designing and manufacturing commercial solar lighting solutions for over a decade. We’re familiar with the benefits and advantages solar lighting systems have to offer farmers. Since solar lights gather their energy from the sun, there are no energy costs for lighting. However, street lights, for example, accumulate about $1,200 in energy costs over 5 years by drawing power from the main power grid, and that's just the energy cost for one street light.

With little to no energy costs for outdoor lighting, you’ll continue to see financial benefits for years afterward. You and your community will gain comfort from the sense of security that our solar lighting brings for all who live and work on your farm.

Solar Panels and Lighting for Farm Buildings

Solar panels can power solar lighting for farm buildings in many situations. From small gardens to large, commercial-scale outbuildings, our systems fit your every need.

Farm Buildings Lighting Solutions 

Whether you wish to lighten up the area around your farm building or homestead, Greenshine New Energy has solutions for every need and every budget. For example, our Classica Solar Lighting System comes with versatile configuration options that make it suitable for all types of farm buildings, including vehicle storage, equipment sheds and machinery storage.

Illuminating Entries, Gates, and Outbuildings

Farms have multiple entries to all kinds of outbuildings, often with gates as barriers. People need clear access to these areas outside of daylight hours. Our Lumina system is the perfect match for these situations. Decorative and practical, the Lumina provides up to 80 watts of power. With a 25-year/80% output warranty and up to a week of reserve battery backup, nobody will be left in the dark.

Solar Panels for Farm Buildings

Farm buildings are often remote and far from the city or the electric grid. This is where a solar lighting plan/system comes into play. With smart Bluetooth controls, commercial grade light fixtures, solar panels, solar batteries, solar chargers, and poles, lighting your farm building has never been easier or more convenient.

Solar for Farmers

Why does solar make sense for farmers? Solar technology comes with cost savings and helps contribute to future income. Solar solutions are a perfect fit for anyone who cares about our natural environments.

Solar Farm Savings and Income 

Even a decade ago, a case study in Kenya showed that portable solar lights for farmers offered the best energy option for a commercial chicken farm. It was a simple question of economics, return-on-investment, and future income. Ten years later, those cost benefits to farms from solar power and lighting solutions are even greater.

Why Commercial Solar for Farmers? 

Farmers are masters of harnessing natural resources to produce provisions and nourishment. Using wind power to grind crops and irrigate land goes back hundreds of years to the windmill. This technology has progressed to the wind turbines of today; similarly, solar technology has been developed to harness the power of the sun. These solutions are now production-ready, and Greenshine is ready to help farmers get started with solar.
