More than 115 California dairy farms are generating solar energy. These on-farm solar panel systems produce more than 180 million kWh of energy each year—enough to meet the electricity needs of 30,000 homes.

Solar energy is a win-win for dairy families and for California. Through investing in renewable energy projects, dairies in the Central Valley are helping the state meet its clean energy goals—committing to solar energy at a rate unmatched by other industries."
