Pedal Steel Solar collaborates with partners that share our values to elevate the Heartland states and energy economy.
Arkansas Advanced Energy Association
Arkansas Monarch Conservation Project
American Solar Grazing Association
Pedal Steel Solar is a member of American Solar Grazing Association and actively participates in their monthly meetings. Pedal Steel Solar looks for collaborative partnerships with local solar grazing shepherds during the operations of our solar projects. When possible, we will contract with local sheep farmers to move the sheep onto the site in the spring, care for them through the grazing season and move them off the site for the winter. Sheep are the most common solar grazing animals, as they are the best-suited species. Solar grazing keeps farmland in farm production and allows farmers to increase and diversify revenues without taking land out of food production. Solar grazing also contributes dairy, meat and wool to regional markets while reducing the need for mowing at solar sites, reducing emissions and costs.
