Problem
Rural landowners and agricultural communities often lack access to reliable, unbiased information about renewable energy projects on their land. Misinformation and a lack of advocacy can prevent farmers and ranchers from capitalizing on the significant economic benefits of wind and solar energy, while also leaving them without a strong voice in local and state-level energy policy decisions.
Solution
Farm-To-Power is a non-profit, non-partisan community that provides factual information and advocacy for renewable energy development on agricultural lands. The organization connects farmers, ranchers, and rural landowners with opportunities to lease their land for wind and solar projects, which can generate millions of dollars in annual revenue. Through a network of state directors and field organizers, Farm-To-Power educates communities, engages local leaders, and mobilizes grassroots support for clean energy policies. The organization actively works to preserve landowner rights and position rural communities as leaders in the renewable energy transition.
