Solar Farm and your Options
DFREL Realtors assist Virginia landowners in selling farms ideal for solar energy development and have helped families decide how best to market and evaluate land for solar farms, solar power leases, and solar facility projects that are planned or poised for construction.
In today's land market, commercial solar energy potential can significantly impact the sale, price per acre & buyer's return on investment. With several renewable energy projects fully operational in Virginia, we continue to see varied opinions, valuations, and appraisals on farmland with income-producing renewable energy. Factors affecting these land values include the farm's location, soil quality, drainage, and the number of acres.

It's called "WeatherPower" and uses the National Weather Service Forecasts, along with information about existing renewable energy sources, to predict how much energy will be generated on a given day.

The declining cost of solar, which has fallen by 40% over the past 5 years in Virginia, has presented an opportunity for solar to be highly influential in the state’s clean energy plans.
