Put Your Land, Buildings and Energy to Work
Energy is a major operating cost for many farms and rural businesses.
From milking and refrigeration to ventilation, heating, processing and machinery, modern agriculture can require significant amounts of electricity every day.
At the same time, farms can have something many other businesses don’t.
Your Space
Agricultural buildings.
Available land.
And significant daytime energy demand.
Renewable energy can help turn those assets into an opportunity to generate more of your own electricity and take greater control of your long-term energy costs.
For almost 20 years, Solmatix has been helping businesses across Northern Ireland, Ireland and Great Britain embrace renewable energy.
Our experienced team can assess your farm, energy usage and available space to help identify the right renewable energy solution for your business.
Turn an operating cost into an opportunity
Every agricultural business is different. But where energy demand is high, generating electricity on-site can create significant long-term value.
The starting point isn’t deciding how many solar panels you need.
It’s understanding how your farm uses energy.
The right renewable energy solution could help you:
- Reduce the amount of electricity you purchase from the grid
- Take greater control of long-term energy costs
- Make productive use of available roof or land space
- Store energy for use when your business needs it
- Reduce your carbon footprint
- Support sustainability requirements within your supply chain
- Prepare your business for future energy demands
- Improve the long-term resilience of your operation
Renewable Energy built around your farm
Put Your Roof or Land to Work.
Agricultural buildings can provide significant opportunities for renewable energy generation.
From sheds and livestock buildings to processing and storage facilities, Solar PV can turn available space into an energy-generating asset. Where appropriate, ground-mounted solar may provide another option for agricultural and rural businesses with suitable land.
Our team will assess your site, energy consumption and objectives before designing a system around your individual operation.
Store More. Use More.
Your farm may not always use electricity at the same time your solar system is generating it.
Battery storage can allow you to capture surplus energy and use it later when your business needs it.
Depending on your energy profile, battery storage may help you:
- Use more of the renewable electricity you generate
- Reduce reliance on grid electricity at certain times
- Better manage energy demand
- Create greater flexibility in how your energy is used

Put your energy to work
Your farm already works hard.
Your buildings and available space could be working harder too.
