  • Custom Energy Inc. - Pioneering Sustainable Solutions for Agriculture and Beyond At Custom Energy Inc., we are committed to providing innovative, sustainable energy solutions that meet the needs of today’s agricultural and industrial sectors. Our approach combines cutting-edge technology with financial incentives, making renewable energy accessible and profitable for our clients. Here’s a look at what we offer: 1. Solar Energy Solutions with Tax Credit Buybacks 👨🌾 We offer a variety of solar energy systems, from rooftop to ground-mounted arrays, to help farmers and businesses transition to clean energy. What sets us apart is our ability to unlock the full value of your solar installation by taking advantage of available incentives and unused tax credits. If your operation isn’t fully utilizing tax credits, Custom Energy Inc. will buy them back, putting money back in your pocket while supporting your shift to renewable energy. 2. Methane Digesters and Carbon Credits🔐 Methane digesters are powerful tools in the battle against greenhouse gas emissions, converting organic waste such as animal manure into biogas, which can be used for heating, electricity, or converted into renewable natural gas (RNG). This not only helps reduce methane emissions, which are far more potent than CO₂, but also creates valuable byproducts like organic fertilizer. 3. Small Wind Turbines 💨 For operations looking for alternative energy sources beyond solar, we also offer small wind turbines. These turbines are designed to generate electricity on a smaller scale, perfect for farms, dairies, and rural businesses. Wind energy can complement solar installations, providing power during times when sunlight is limited, especially in windy regions. 4. The Ultimate Food System 🥬 The Ultimate Food System is our innovative approach to sustainable agriculture. It’s a controlled environment that produces organic barley, alfalfa, and 17 varieties of leafy greens. This system not only produces high-quality crops year-round, but it also drastically reduces land and water use compared to traditional farming methods. By optimizing growing conditions indoors, we help farmers achieve consistent, predictable yields without the challenges of fluctuating weather or soil quality. 5. Dairy Solutions: HVAC and Tax Credits♻️ We understand the specific needs of dairy farms and offer specialized products to ensure their efficiency and profitability. From HVAC systems that maintain optimal temperatures for livestock to energy-efficient equipment, we’ve got the solutions to help dairies run smoother. Plus, as part of our commitment to making energy transitions affordable. Custom Energy Inc.

  • 🌞 Why pay more when solar can save you thousands? 🌱 Solar energy isn’t just about going green—it’s about helping agricultural operations thrive. Here’s how: ✅ Lower Energy Bills: Solar panels can offset a huge portion of your energy costs, freeing up resources to reinvest in your operation. With rising utility rates, locking in low-cost solar energy just makes sense. ✅ Grants and Incentives Cover the Majority of Costs: Programs like the USDA REAP grants, state rebates, and federal tax incentives make solar more affordable than ever. Many of our clients are seeing up to 80% of their project costs covered. ✅ Turn Tax Credits into Cash: If your operation doesn’t owe taxes, you won’t miss out. The transferable tax credit lets you sell those credits to a third-party buyer, turning them into cash for your business. ✅ Hedge Against Energy Price Increases: Solar helps you secure long-term energy savings, giving your operation stability even as utility rates rise. At Custom Energy Inc. (CEI), we’re with you every step of the way—from evaluating your operation’s energy needs to installing solar panels and securing every grant, rebate, and incentive available with the help of our expert grant writer. We take care of the details so you can focus on running your operation. 💬 Let’s chat about how we can help you cut costs, reduce risks, and grow sustainably with solar! #SolarForFarms #RenewableEnergy #AgSolar #SaveWithSolar #EnergySavings #FarmingForTheFuture #SustainableAgriculture

  • Empowering Solar and Climate-Controlled Food Systems with Grants and Financing As renewable energy and climate-smart agriculture gain momentum, grants and financing options have become vital in advancing solar and climate-controlled food system projects. These funding programs are transforming traditional agriculture, helping projects use fewer resources and operate more efficiently, ensuring long-term sustainability and profitability. Here’s a deeper look at how these programs open doors for innovative, resource-saving practices in agriculture. REAP: A Game-Changer for Solar and Food Systems The USDA’s Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) is leading the way by providing grants and loan guarantees for agricultural producers and rural businesses investing in renewable energy or energy efficiency improvements. Covering up to 50% of project costs through grants and up to 75% with loan guarantees, REAP supports solar projects and climate-controlled food systems that conserve water, land, and energy. • Eligibility: Agricultural producers and rural small businesses are eligible for REAP funding, which supports solar projects, energy-saving food production systems, and more. • Funding Structure: REAP offers both grants for direct project costs and loan guarantees to support additional financing. Investment Tax Credit (ITC) for Solar Solar projects can benefit greatly from the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which offers a 30% tax credit on solar investment costs. This credit can help agricultural producers and rural businesses achieve a faster return on investment, making solar more accessible and financially viable. Climate-Controlled Food Systems: Saving Water, Land, and Energy Climate-controlled food systems, which operate with technology designed to optimize water and energy use, are reshaping agriculture. These systems often use high-efficiency, gravity-fed designs that save up to 97% of water compared to traditional farming methods, while conserving land and reducing energy needs. By producing crops in 7-10 days with continuous harvest potential, climate-controlled systems significantly increase yield per square foot, allowing farmers to operate sustainably on less land. With state-specific incentives supporting these systems, farmers are not only lowering costs but also contributing to a more resilient food supply. Green Bonds and Low-Interest Loans: Bridging the Gap Green bonds and low-interest loans provide an additional layer of financial flexibility for farmers and rural businesses looking to bridge project costs and returns. With competitive rates, these financing tools make it easier for small and mid-sized farms to implement energy-efficient food systems and renewable energy projects, advancing sustainable practices in agriculture.

  • How Renewable Energy Grants and Tax Credits Can Benefit Farmers Farmers today have more opportunities than ever to leverage renewable energy solutions that not only benefit the environment but also provide significant financial savings. With grants, incentives, and transferable tax credits, farmers can reduce upfront costs and boost their operations’ efficiency. Maximizing Savings with Renewable Energy Solutions Programs and incentives are available for farmers investing in renewable energy systems like solar installations, methane digesters, and climate-controlled food systems. These initiatives not only help cut energy costs but also generate financial returns through grants and tax credits. For instance, federal and state tax credits can cover a large portion of installation costs, while grants from USDA and other agencies provide additional funding support. Transferable Tax Credits for Immediate Benefits For farmers who can’t fully utilize tax credits, transferable credits are a game-changer. These credits can be sold or transferred, offering immediate cash flow to reinvest in the farm. It’s an effective way to make renewable energy projects financially feasible and beneficial for the long term. With solar, digesters, and controlled environment systems, farmers are not only saving energy but also capitalizing on financial incentives. By taking advantage of these resources, agriculture can continue to grow sustainably and profitably. #RenewableEnergy #Farmers #TaxCredits #SustainableFarming #EnergySavings #Grants #SolarEnergy #MethaneDigesters #ClimateControlledAgriculture #FinancialSupport #AmericanTaxExchange
