Solar electricity from Photo Voltaic (PV) panels can be suitable for tillage farmers who are using a lot of energy such as potato or grain stores and on this week’s Tillage Edge podcast, Barry Caslin, a Bioenergy Specialist in Teagasc, discusses how PV can be useful to tillage farmers.

Barry explains that to get the best from these systems, self-use of the generated electricity will give the best paybacks.

Barry also chats through figures on the capital outlay, expected outputs and paybacks.
