Simple Solar Solutions for all Agricultural Sectors.

EGT Solar has focused heavily in the Agricultural sector since 2014 with an aim to help create cost predictability through distributed solar applications. We are committed to doing our part to help further create more sustainable food sources by mitigating energy expenses in a very tight margin industry to help farmers, ranchers, and dairy operators sustain their operational expenses.

Renewable energy is taking the Idaho agriculture industry by storm as it is simply the most cost-effective way to create cleaner, long term cost stabilization of utility power and associated expenses. The Ag industry continuously has fluctuation in prices for their crops and solar is an effective way to mitigate these constant variations by creating a fixed rate of long-term power costs. EGT Solar’s focus on agricultural projects is to create the highest profit/acre attainable to make a true win-win situation with us and our client.
