If you haven’t already noticed, something big is happening at Ferme Oscar Daigle.

Our team has been on-site installing a NOREASTER 27 – one of our larger projects this year – for their dairy operation. Once turned on, the system is projected to offset nearly 100% of the farm’s electricity needs.

Farming comes with plenty of unpredictable costs, but energy doesn’t have to be one of them. By producing their own power, Ferme Oscar Daigle will be able to turn rising electricity costs into more predictable, long-term savings.

Built for Canadian farms, the NOREASTER is designed to provide reliable energy for decades to come. We’re excited to see this project taking shape and can’t wait to share when it’s been completed!

Congratulations to Bird's Hill Wagyu on its new NOREASTER® system! ☀️

Bird’s Hill is now producing its own power with a NOREASTER® 8 – a 100 kW micro solar farm expected to deliver more than $1.7 million in lifetime energy savings and pay for itself in just over 5 years.

A big shoutout to our installation partners, Valley Refrigeration & A/C. Thank you for helping bring this project from design to production!

☀️ Solar Myth: Solar is too expensive.

The upfront cost is only one part of the picture. Your system size, available incentives, financing options, and long-term electricity savings all affect what solar will actually cost and how quickly it can pay for itself.

That’s where we come in. We help you make sense of the numbers and design a system that fits your farm’s energy needs and financial goals.

Solar doesn’t have to be complicated. Let’s find out if it makes sense for your farm.

DIY or Turnkey? Which is the better choice for your farm? ☀️🌾

When it comes to installing a solar system, there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Depending on your budget, timeline, and available labour, one option may make a lot more sense than the other.

Read our latest blog to compare both options and find out which one is the best fit for your operation.
