Tennessee Valley Solar (TVS) made this project possible by helping the customer secure multiple incentives and delivering a successful installation, including funds from the Renewable Energy for America Program (REAP) grant.
Using a combination of the Tennessee Valley Authority's Green Power Providers Program, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Energy for America Program, and the Federal Investment Tax Credit, TVS was able to deliver a low-risk investment opportunity to the customer with an impressive internal return rate of 24% and approximately a 4-year payback period!
The canopy serves two main functions, along with exporting clean electricity onto the grid. The space underneath the array is also used as parking for combines and other farm equipment. At 14' high on the south side, this was no minor engineering undertaking. Overall, this is a great example of the future of distributed energy generation, creative and multi-functional.
