Reduce the Fire Risk

Tall dry matter can become the fuel for a costly fire on a solar site. With thousands of electrical connections, the risk of fire is extremely high. Through regular mowing of a site the dry vegetation is controlled and this risk is significantly reduced.

Eliminating Panel Shading

Tall vegetation can shade the panels and reduce energy production. Through regular mowing, we eliminate energy losses from the vegetation allowing the site to operate efficiently.

Prevent the Spread of Weeds

Many noxious and nuisance weeds are found on solar sites, if they are left to mature and spread they can cause issues to adjacent agricultural lands, natural areas, wetlands etc. Through proper vegetation management, using mowing and targeted herbicide applications, these weeds can be controlled and their spread greatly reduced.

Improve Site Appearance

Well kept and tidy solar and wind sites is critical to ensure positive public image and landowner relations. Overgrown and messy sites may give a negative impression to locals and those considering a proposed project nearby, or landowners who may be considering a renewables instalment on their land.
