Answers to Your Solar Energy Questions

---

A: 1-megawatt is the basic unit of potential capacity for solar farms built at the scale we’re discussing.

A: The solar panels we use are designed to withstand most of our Oklahoma weather including hail and high wind. Also, check out this YouTube video! (Sorry, nothing withstands an F-5 tornado.)

A: Typical solar farms in Oklahoma need approximately 6 acres per megawatt of capacity.

A: Not at this point. Current Oklahoma regulations and electric utility infrastructure in most municipalities either do not allow or make it uneconomical for you to sell your excess power back to the grid. We encourage you to support clean energy initiatives to encourage end-users to sell excess power back to the grid and reduce our country's carbon footprint in the future.

A: We can build a solar farm in as little as six weeks. On average, it takes up to three months.

A: Current technology allows a 1-megawatt solar farm to produce roughly 1.77 million kilowatt hours of energy per year in the northern part of Oklahoma and a little more in southern Oklahoma.

A: That depends on your power usage and needs and current costs. Our solar farms produce power at around $0.09 per kilowatt-hour for up to 25 years. The current average retail rate in Oklahoma is $0.09.6 per kilowatt-hour with unknown, but certain, increases in the future.

A: We handle all of this so you don’t have to.
