Partnering with Local Landowners
- Each wind turbine uses an acre or less, which enables landowners to continue grazing livestock around them, preserving their family heritage for the next generation and protecting the county’s tradition of ranching and grazing.
- Leasing a portion of land for solar energy generation can help ranchers prioritize other areas of their ranch while collecting new, consistent income. Topsoil is preserved, and at the end of the project’s life, the land can be returned to its current condition and used at the landowner’s discretion.
