315 kW ground-mount solar system supporting an irrigation pump site near Stavely, AB. Western Solar provided racking and module installation.

Irrigation pumps are some of the hardest-working loads on a farm. They pull hard exactly when the sun is doing the same, which makes them a natural fit for solar. This ground-mount system was sized around the pump’s real draw, not a generic farm load, and built to hold up through the seasons it actually needs to run.

Western Solar’s scope covered racking and module installation, work that has to account for the site’s ground conditions and equipment access as much as the electrical side. The result is a system that earns its keep during the exact months it matters most.
