Solar Battery Storage: A Key Player During a Hurricane
Friday, September 30, 2022Natural disasters can leave individuals without electricity for weeks at a time. For instance, no one in Texas expected winter storm Uri in 2021 which left Texans without access to the power grid for weeks.

This statement is a large platform for pushback against the green energy movement- but it isn't entirely true. There are several ways that different forms of solar power can work together with agriculture to produce both food and energy for Americans. Take this for instance: say you own a large farming operation and you're looking for ways to offset your energy consumption costs but you aren't sure how to start incorporating solar into your farm. Here's a few ways:
