Unfortunately, what should be a virtuous initiative is giving rise to a new crime wave, with police data showing a staggering 48% rise in solar panel and cabling theft from 2021 to 2022. By way
As renewable energy proposals have flooded the flat, sunny and windy sweeps of Midwest farmland, they have sharply divided tight-knit rural communities.
For those who see a land-use challenge in the development of solar energy in rural communities, I can tell you the solution: Private property rights. Farmers who think solar panels make
Farmland preservation groups believe 83 percent of new solar installations will come from farm and ranch lands with half of these installations on the richest land for food and crops. Solar
As U.S. farmers grapple with soaring debt and slumping incomes, some crop producers are trading their tractors for flocks of sheep, and starting up solar grazing businesses to help make
The grass-roots backlash against large solar farms has become so widespreadthat the Solar Energy Industries Association last year developed and disseminated sensitivities,in a move to combat
As U.S. farmers grapple with soaring debt and slumping incomes, some crop producers are trading their tractors for flocks of sheep, and starting up solar grazing businesses to help make
Over the past few months, I''ve noticed an increasing number of headlines claiming that America''s most productive farmland is being taken over by solar panels.
Opposition campaigns have successfully thwarted or delayed solar buildout in their own backyards in the name of protecting valuable U.S. farmland. But, conflicts between agricultural land
Foreign adversary-made solar panels (e.g., China) are now prohibited in USDA-funded projects, aligning with "America First" energy and national security priorities.
