Large Property Solar

Solar for Texas Ranches and Large Properties

You have the land. Put it to work generating clean, affordable power.

The Advantage of Land

If you own 1 acre or more in Texas, you have something most solar customers don't: options.

You're not limited by roof space, shading, or structural concerns. You can install as much solar as you need, positioned perfectly for maximum production. Ground mount was made for properties like yours.

Why Ground Mount Makes Sense for Large Properties

📐

Optimal Positioning

Face panels true south at the perfect tilt angle. No compromise for roof orientation. 10-25% more production than typical rooftop.

📈

Scalable Systems

Start with what you need today. Expand later as energy needs grow. Add capacity for workshops, barns, or EV charging.

🔋

Battery Ready

Add battery storage for energy independence. Keep power during outages — critical for rural properties far from grid infrastructure.

🔧

Easy Maintenance

Walk-up access means simple cleaning and inspection. No ladders, no roof risks. Important when you're managing a large property.

System Sizes for Large Properties

With land, you're not constrained to typical residential sizes. Here's what's possible:

10-15 kW

Large Home

Powers typical ranch home with standard usage
~500-700 sq ft footprint
$35,000 - $75,000
20-30 kW

Home + Shop

Main house plus workshop, barn, or guest house
~1,000-1,500 sq ft footprint
$70,000 - $150,000
40-60 kW

Full Property

Multiple structures, irrigation, equipment
~2,000-3,000 sq ft footprint
$140,000 - $300,000
100+ kW

Special Considerations for Rural Texas

Grid Reliability

Rural areas often experience more frequent and longer outages. Ground mount solar with battery backup keeps essential systems running when the grid fails.

After Winter Storm Uri, many rural Texans added solar + battery specifically for grid independence.

Soil and Terrain

Rocky Hill Country soil? No problem. We use helical piles that screw into the ground — no concrete footings needed. Works in most Texas soil conditions.

Hilly terrain can also be accommodated with adjustable racking systems.

Well Pumps and Irrigation

Solar can power well pumps and irrigation systems, reducing or eliminating those electricity costs. Particularly valuable for agricultural operations.

Net Metering

With a large system, you may produce more than you use during certain months. Net metering credits that excess production against your bill. Some rural properties become net-positive on electricity.

Who We Work With

Ranch Owners

Power your main house, guest quarters, barns, and workshops. Add capacity over time as needs evolve.

Hobby Farms

Run irrigation, outbuildings, and equipment. Solar often pays for itself faster on agricultural properties.

Rural Homesteads

Achieve energy independence on acreage properties. Perfect for off-grid or grid-tied with battery backup.

Exurban Properties

1-5 acre lots in Collin County, Williamson County, and other growing areas. Ground mount maximizes value on larger lots.

Off-Grid and Backup Options

Grid-Tied with Battery Backup

Stay connected to the grid for net metering, but have battery backup for outages. The best of both worlds.

  • • Keep essential loads powered during outages
  • • Still get credit for excess production
  • • Lower upfront cost than full off-grid

Full Off-Grid

No utility connection at all. Complete energy independence. Requires larger battery bank and system sizing.

  • • No monthly electric bills
  • • No dependence on grid
  • • Ideal for remote properties
