Black Trumpet Farm
The mission at Black Trumpet Farm is to promote community food security by providing delicious, affordable and nutrient-dense mushrooms.
Why Go Solar?
They wanted to create a more sustainable energy usage plan for their indoor mushroom farm as their business requires specific temperature, humidity, and lighting control to produce the highest quality mushrooms.
“Going solar was a great business decision. We’re able to use our cost savings on our utility bills to reinvest in the business and increase employee wages.”
System Details:
34 x 480 watt roof-mounted solar panels
A 34-panel, 480-watt roof-mounted solar system (16.32 kW) provides substantial energy output, significantly lowering or eliminating electricity bills. Roof installations save ground space and use existing structures, making them ideal for properties with limited land. They take advantage of unused roof areas while offering a sleek, low-profile design. Though access for maintenance is more challenging, roof-mounted systems are cost-effective to install and can still qualify for net metering, tax incentives, and energy savings. This system helps reduce your carbon footprint while providing long-term financial benefits.
