Shading Livestock from the Sun and Harvesting the Sun's Energy

WWIAStrobel Shadeswww.strobelshades.comHow does solar work?Solar panels generate DC energy that is sent to an inverter that converts it to AC energy that youcan use for your home or business. The system is integrated with your operation and utilitymaking everything seamless. No need for any crazy upgrades to integrate solar. Any excessenergy that you are not using at the time will be sent back to the grid and you will build credits.When the sun sets you will use the credits that you build up.○ Let's clarify what we do. We are not involved in “solar farms utility grade” WE DO NOTTAKE UP HUNDREDS OF ACRES OF FARMLAND○ We help offset the cost of electricity of operations by installing solar that is connected tothe grid. Depending on the interconnection agreement the solar system can offset50-100%.○ You will still get a power bill but reduced. Saving thousands of dollars every month. Why should farmers invest in solar?The biggest motivation to go solar is the money the farmers can save by reducing monthly power bills andfreeing up capital that can be diverted elsewhere or added to the bottom line.Solar IncentivesUSDA REAP GRANT50% Total Project up to 1 Million dollarsInvestment Tax Credit30% Tax Credit - This goes against your tax liability. It can carry back 3 years or carry forward up to 22years.New law has passed that you can sell the tax credits as well.Depreciation- A solar energy system is classified as farm equipment.There are also bonus credits depending on location.How much does a solar energy system cost?There isn’t a one-size-fits-all option for solar. Every system is unique. There are many factors to consider.This would include whether it will be roof mounted or ground mounted. How much trenching,wiring,conduit, panel count,inverter count and specific engineering. The great news is that panel priceshave dropped in price and will remain flat for a long time. When you add up all the incentives and theycan be applied, the incentives pay for the entire project.What is an interconnection agreement?The agreement establishes all the terms and conditions associated with operating the customer's solarsystem in parallel with the utility's electric power system. Every electricity company is different.Especially in rural areas. A lot of these terms and conditions haven’t been updated since the 1980s. What size solar energy system will my farm need?Accuracy is absolutely imperative in order to set realistic expectations. We use the most recent 12months worth of utility data and analyze everything. This ranges from energy pattern, rate structure,demand charges, on and off peak. We use sophisticated technology to analyze ROI, IRR, paybackperiod and 25 year savings. Also a financial model is presented along with any type of loan option if oneis requested. We even take a look at the last 30 years of historical weather data in the exact location ofthe project. Attention to every detail is important for someone to have the best experience possible.Why go solar now? Won't the technology be cheaper down the road?There has never been a better time to pursue a solar project. The panel technology is so efficient thatfuture technology will be incremental. The alignment of incentives and grants has made this investment ano brainer. There is no other piece of farm equipment that has a 30% tax credit and a grant that cancover up to 50% of the cost. The reality of the grant is we don't know the future of the grant in 2025. It ispossible that it can be reduced or stay the same. The fact is it would be a gamble to wait.What is the process for going solar?Evaluation of ProjectContract ExecutionEngineering DesignPermitting & InterconnectionApprovalEquipment ProcurementInstallation & CommissionLong-Term O&M andMonitoringWill solar panels power my building when the grid is down?These systems are interconnected with the grid. If the grid goes down the solar shuts down. This is asafety measure with the utility company. There cannot be any live power while the lineman are working tofix any grid issues. This is where a battery backup can be introduced. Battery technology is still very newand the prices will come down over the years. This should be the last resort considering all farms havegenerators.

Who cares? You're tired.  Nobody cared. It's on you. Cut out all the fucking noise. Get back to the fucking mental lab. You got to go for it. I will never quit. I'm going to win. Seize this very minute. What you can do or even dream you can do and begin it. Now, if you know what you're worth, go out and get what you're worth.But you've got to be willing to take the hits. That's where winning is. There are no crappy jams in the. It's just you and your shadow. Say to yourself, it's not over until I win! Clip2What would happen if for the next 365 days,  you gave it your all? What if for the next 365 days, not 366, not 364. What if for the next 365 days, you didn't self sabotage? Who would you be  if for the next  365 days, you didn't quit? Who would you become? What type of person would be bred from that trial, that tribulation?I want to find out. And I think that you're doing a disservice to you, to your family, to your lineage, to your future generations, if you don't try to achieve your fullest potential. So, strive for greatness. Because, on the other side of this pain, this bullshit, this trial, this struggle, is greatness. And you can unlock it.But you gotta put in the fucking hours. You gotta put in the work. Yeah. And you gotta put in the 365 motherfucking days. Clip3Warren Buffet QuoteAs you set your New Year's resolutions this year, I want you to remember my favorite Warren Buffett quote. Take the top 25 things you want to get done this year, and write them all down. And then take number 5 through 25 on that list, and this year, avoid doing these at all costs. If you want to be exceptional this year, then you need to ruthlessly prioritize. Clip4Mel RobbinsI believe that the reason why you want to be happier is because you miss being happier and you can only miss things that you know. I'll give you a simple exercise that you can do that I did with one of our daughters. She dealt with the depression and the grief by drinking herself into the ground and had a complete breakdown.I said, okay, well, here's what, let's start here. First of all, I want you to have this breakthrough where you realize you do know what you need to do. So take out a piece of paper and I want you to draw a line down the center. When was a time that you felt happier than you feel right now? Now on the left hand side of the paper, I want you to write down all the things that were happening in your life then.Like what did your day to day life look like? So you start to write. I left the house at 7 a. m. I was at school all day with my friends. I went to lacrosse practice. I exercised every day. And I'm like, great, now write down what your life looks like now. I sleep till noon. I drink every day. I don't leave the house.I don't exercise. Like, compare. Mm hmm. And change accordingly. Your whole life is about those little things that you do every day. And if you're not happy, get out a piece of paper, draw a line down the center, and write down the things that you were doing when you were a happier or healthier person. And change accordingly Clip5Steve HarveyWhat can I do to be happy? Number one, you have to own your own happiness. Your kids are not going to make you happy. Your spouse is not going to make you happy. A big house is not going to make you happy. Own your own happiness and be responsible for doing those things that bring joy into your own heart, independently of life and people and money and all of that.That it doesn't necessarily give you a happiness. You have to take responsibility of that peace and that joy that lives inside of your heart and not inside of your stuff. The second thing that I think people need to do is challenge their own story because people torment themselves by how they see their life.Challenge your own story. Change the way you talk to yourself about who you are and what happened to you and what you're going to do in your life. You, you wrote the script, changed the story. The third thing that, that, that I think is very important is to enjoy the journey. Not the destination.  A lot of us delay our happiness.When I get to this level, when I get my degree, when I get the kids, when I get married, I'm going to be happy. Enjoy the journey, enjoy the whole step, the whole process. Every day that you get up to strive for whatever it is you're after, you know, I'm a goal oriented guy, but you don't celebrate when you get to the finish line, celebrate all along the way.Celebrate all along the way Clip6SurferIf you want to be happier, you need to use something that I call the surfer's mentality. See, because there's something a surfer understands better about life than most other people. See, a surfer wants to get up on the wave, but they don't make the mistake of believing that once they're up, that they're going to stay there forever.When they get up there, they enjoy it and they ride it as far as they can. But at every moment, they realize that that wave is going to crash. and that they're going to fall. And maybe another wave is going to crash on top of them. But they don't let that get them down. Because a surfer understands that there's always more waves coming.And that is the experience of surfing.  Trying to get up on the wave, waiting to get up on the next wave, getting ready and being prepared for the waves. that crash over you. And if you can enjoy the entire experience of being alive, the moments that are challenging as much as the highs, and understand that they are two parts of the same experience, then my friend, you will have won the game Clip7MN State FairWhat makes you happy? What brings you joy?  Sex.You didn't expect that, did you? Clip8And that, um,  that hurt, you know, and I think that just, that flipped a switch in me where I was like, okay, fuck you, watch this Clip9Doing what you don’t want to doWhen that alarm clock goes off at four or five in the morning, your mind says, no, you just say, this is what we do  is what we do now, because to get to where you want to go, the amount of pain involved, the amount of mental pain of how many times you're going to have to do something that you don't want to do to get to where you want to go, there's gonna be more times you do stuff that you don't want to do, then you are going to want to do it. And then once you do this over and over and over again, it becomes like breathing. I don't want to live this lifestyle, but to get to the other side of this, I have to.  Clip10Stop procrastinatingOne of the absolute best ways to get motivation to stop procrastinating and actually start working towards your goals is this. Grab a pen and paper and write down what your ideal life looks like  five years from now and what you have to do in order to achieve that life. Then, right next to it, write down what your life will look like five years from now if you continue to live by the  Have.Put them next to each other and look at them. Look at them and ask yourself which one of these two lives do I truly want and fully realize that you have the option to choose between either one of them. The habits that you are going to live by from this point on will determine which one of these two lives you will end up getting. Clip11Adam Sandler – My Tyson – Denzel – Steve Harvey – Kobe – Jay Z – Kevin Hart You have to think I am the best ever. I'm the most brutal and vicious and most ruthless champion has ever been. What do you want to be in life? I'm a winner.  I'm going to win. So this is how you level up. You need to work hard. The more you put in, the more you get out. It's on you. You can never lose faith.Things don't happen to you. They happen for you. Anything in life will eventually turn good. Always keep going.  Always, no matter what happens, the storm eventually ends.  does and you want to make sure that you're ready.
