Solar and Energy Costs in Bassano
Bassano is a town of about 1,200 people in the County of Newell, on Highway 1 about 140 km southeast of Calgary and 160 km northwest of Medicine Hat. It sits on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Kansas City railway. The Bassano Dam, just south of town, sends water through a canal into Lake Newell Reservoir, which supplies much of the County of Newell for irrigation, recreation and drinking water.
Irrigation changes the solar question. If your farm runs pumps or pivots through the long summer days, a good part of that load happens when solar produces most. If your farm is dryland, the pattern looks more like other grain farms. We check which of those you are before we say anything about a system.
In town, the Bassano Health Centre and the main-street businesses have their own daytime loads. A short review of the bill tells us whether a roof-mounted system makes sense.
