Agribusiness Solar Experts
Invest in your future
Harness the Power of the Sun and Modernize Traditional Farming
Solar energy offers a cost-effective approach to significantly reducing operational expenses and increasing financial savings. How? We can now fit 1 megawatt of panels in less than a 5-acre footprint.
Our agricultural clients often opt for sun-tracking arrays because of their superior power yield, resulting in significantly higher financial savings. With sun-tracking arrays, 1 acre typically yields $50,000 in energy cost offsets.
For sites where ground space is limited, we offer solar support structures that allow for equipment or material storage underneath the array. Rest assured, all components used by Pickett Solar are meticulously designed for both simplicity and long-term reliability.

Hear Directly From A Client
Pickett Solar helped design a 1/3 megawatt solar farm to offset our energy needs within our packing facility, our cold storage, and all of our ag pumps on this ranch. We have been operational for six months now and we’re already seeing our utility rates decrease by 90%. I have nothing but great things to say about working with Pickett Solar. We couldn’t be happier with this investment in solar.
