Solar and Energy Costs Around Arrowwood
Arrowwood is a village of 188 people in Vulcan County, on Highway 547 about 60 km east of Okotoks. The last of its four grain elevators still stands along the old CPR track bed on the west side of town. The energy story here is the farms around it.
Farms in Vulcan County are mainly grain: wheat, peas, canola and barley. Grain operations use the most power around harvest, for drying, aeration and handling, and much less the rest of the year. Solar makes most of its power in the long days of summer, so the first question is how your monthly usage lines up with expected production.
A shop, a water system and year-round lighting are steadier loads and suit solar better than a seasonal one. We read the bill to find out which is which before we suggest a size.
