Webinar: Solar farm leases: What you need to know
© AdobeStock/jamesh77 Have you considered turning some of your land into a solar farm but didn’t have the time to look into it? Or maybe it all sounds too complex?

- What makes an ideal site?
- How much do developers pay?
- What are the tax implications for you and your business?
- What are the steps in the solar development process?
- Who is responsible for maintenance?
