Getting a vineyard that’s powered by solar.
When thinking about installing solar, installing it on a vineyard is probably one of the last places you’d expect do it. But solar needs to start being installed everywhere, and a vineyard is actually the perfect place to do it. Not only do they already receive a lot of sun and require a lot of energy to function, but they also could benefit and draw in more business by promoting being a “green” vineyard. Keep reading this blog to learn more about why bringing solar into your vineyard is an excellent idea.
Save on your monthly upkeep costs.
Vineyards require a lot of power to function properly, which means they also require a lot of spending. However, by installing solar, you can relieve yourself of a lot of that financial burden. If you have a large vineyard, you can invest in ground-mounted panels, which means you won’t have to worry about positioning your panels perfectly on your roof. You can place them far away from the building and the vines in order to get your energy without ruining the aesthetic appeal of your vineyard, as well.
Getting the right sized solar system.
Of course, if you have a large vineyard, the size of your solar system is also a factor you’ll need to take into consideration. Just ensure you get a system that produces enough (if not more) energy in order to keep those savings up and outweigh the costs of running your vineyard. To do this, you’ll need to look at how much energy you currently use by looking at past utility bills and then use that to figure out how many panels you’ll need. If you get more than you need, you’ll be able to also buy batteries to store extra power. This means that if you experience something like a blackout, you’ll be able to keep your vineyard up and running and won’t suffer the consequences, meaning your business can continue to function as though nothing ever happened.
Going green is a massive branding opportunity.
Renewable energy is all the rage right now, so letting people know that your entire vineyard is powered by 100% renewable energy in the form of solar energy, you’ll be able to bring in a lot more environmentally conscious, new customers that are intrigued by the idea of running a vineyard completely on a solar powered system.
It’s unlikely that a whole lot of people are currently running their vineyards on solar and using that as a marketing technique, which is why it’s a great idea to jump on the ship right now and lead the charge. If you’re one of the first ones to do it, you can seriously take ownership of it.
Brand all your marketing materials with “100% Solar Powered Vineyard,” and you’ll be sure to catch the attention of a lot of people who might have otherwise overlooked your business. And you can use this marketing strategy in a variety of ways. For instance, when you sell your wine to stores, you can put it on the bottle: “This wine was made with 100% renewable energy technologies.” And when you’re advertising your wine tastings, you can say, “Taste the wine made by 100% renewable energy and check out our solar powered vineyard.”
