Adam Timmerman runs a diversified family farm in Cherokee County, Iowa. As his livestock operations expanded, so did his electricity bills – quickly. Adam worked with Blue Horizon Energy and together we designed a series of solar projects that significantly reduce his annual electricity expenses, insulating the farm from unpredictable future rate increases, all with an attractive return on investment. In addition, the solar projects were placed on underutilized farmland to increase the financial yield from this less productive property without impacting overall crop production.
