Sprucedale Gardens received an award to purchase and install a 21.6 kW ground-mounted (on Not Prime Farmland) DC Solar PV System which is eligible for the NRES netting and SAM policy. The system will produce approximately 28,000 kWh a year and cover approximately 100% of the farm’s usage on two meters, thereby supplying power to the ventilation fan motors in the greenhouse, two wells on the property for irrigation water, environmental control equipment, and lighting.
