A Major New Solar Installation at CVKH

Written By Margaret Yarmush

In July 2025, work was completed on the installation of 327 solar panels on the south-facing roofs of two of our Dairy buildings. This installation will generate more that 60% of the current electrical needs of our community and result in significant savings in our electric bills.

Solar panels on the new loafing shed.

The installation was done by TerraSol Energies, Inc. and Ginnona Electric, at a cost of $381,920. We are deeply grateful to the following generous donors who made this possible:
