Land that is clear of trees is more likely to be leased for solar energy! However, although its unlikely, some solar developers may be willing to clear the trees for you to support a new project.

Hi Jane, I have tried to replicate this error you are experiencing multiple different ways. On our side we can view the like you have given us and we have received the notification of your video like. I would love to chat with you to figure this out! Please feel free to email me - je@landgate.com.

If you own both the mineral and surface rights on a property, it is easier to lease the property. When the surface and mineral owners of a property are different, it can create complications with lease agreements!

Hello! Data Centers are not loud. It sounds like your property could be a great fit to host a data center, solar farm, wind farm, or other renewable energy project given the property's location and proximity to electrical infrastructure. We'd recommend listing your property for lease for each option on our marketplace (solar, wind, data center, EV charging, energy storage, water, oil & gas) because there is no obligation to accept any offers, and you never know what kinds of offers you'll receive. There is no cost to list. Here is a step-by-step guide, please let us know if you have any other questions: www.landgate.com/news/how-to-list-on-landgate

Those are really great questions! Early termination can happen once a project is operating, although that is very uncommon. Once a developer has spent the capital to have the solar farm built, they are going to do everything they can to allow it to produced energy for as long as it is economically feasible. Solar leases in the option period can, and oftentimes do, terminate prior to constructing and building of the solar farm. The likelihood of a solar lease option being canceled early decreases based on how good the site location is. The better the site, the more likely the developer will make sure that the project goes into development. So anyone interested can check to see if their site is good or bad for solar, battery storage, wind, data centers, or other resources by going to LandGate (bit.ly/4bLmEo2) and selecting their property. We have provided index scores relevant to each resource to make it easier to understand the potential value. I hope this answers your questions!

@landgate_resources ty so much for the response. We were contacted by a company in a joint venture with jp Morgan as the financial backer. Said they are interested in 250 of our 500 acres as the "final piece to the project " something about transmission lines on our property. We have a meeting with Ercot tomorrow so trying to learn all I can in short time lol. Ty again.

@@willpower9399 You are very welcome!! We always recommend to landowners to list their property to see what other offers you could receive. Good luck with the meeting with Ercot tomorrow, if you have anymore questions feel free to reach out!

So what happens if land owners sign with different companies for the same project? Does that kill the deal?

@@willpower9399 If you are under an option agreement with a solar developer, the agreement will contain clauses that do not permit you to explore other lease offers from solar developers.

Unfortunately we do not have access to the full presentation but we have a ton of solar information in our playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLYEIOUUnZ7nupQd4sRN-7qbdE1pL6nou0.html If you have any specific questions about solar, let us know so we can share specific information!

Hey Tyler! Please submit a contact form request on our website here: bit.ly/3VwYFT6 and one of our land experts will reach out to you and answer any questions you have about your property. You can learn more about silvopasture here: www.landgate.com/news/silvopasture

Hello! We'd recommend working with a land professional that is familiar with energy leasing, as they can consult you on this. We can refer you to a land professional licensed in your state. Please email real-estate@landgate.com with the location of your property and we can connect you with someone! In the meantime, here's a resource to help you learn a little more about energy/ battery storage: www.landgate.com/news/faq-battery-storage

Hello, thank you for your question! The cost to build substations varies, but starts at a minimum of $500,000. Electrical utility contractors typically construct substations by working with the local government.

Thank you, Ryan! Joette found out that the transmission line near her property had capacity in the queue by talking with developers interested in leasing her land.

Any demand for non-flat ground so not taking out prime farmland for solar? It might tell a good story & have less community opposition-Just a bit more effort/expense to construct.

Great question! Certain topography levels (typically above 5%) are not suitable for solar panels- it's too difficult to get the construction equipment to those areas. However, new technologies for renewable energy are constantly being created (such as the newer floating solar panels), so hopefully non-flat land will be useful for solar panels in the future! You can find out your property's specific topography level by getting a free property report on our map: app.landgate.com/app/land-app/property-reports/select-land

@@landgate_resources Thank you.

That's a great question @shehenderson7008. The best way to see if a property is a good candidate for carbon credits is to run a free property report, you can do so at app.landgate.com/app/land-app/property-reports/ It truly is completely free and you can view how the property compares to the county and state level as well as to other resources on the property.

Hi @shelhenderson7008, it would mostly depend on the contract you set forth with whoever is the owner of the land and the contract with the developer. That question is probably very dependent on the situation though, like how exactly the land manager is involved. Typically the renewable developer would lease the land from the land owner. The land manager would most likely be paid on a salary. A realtor or broker however might be paid on a one-time commission basis for brokering the deal and handling the contracts. We have another video on solar leasing with a realtor here as well if you want to learn more on that: ua-cam.com/video/3l8E7H0XEgY/v-deo.htmlsi=2RzcRppNhMccbAVa

Hi @shelhenderson7008, we didn't expand a lot on selling carbon credits in this video, but we do have other recorded webinars specifically about carbon credits. You can click on either of the links below to watch more about carbon on our UA-cam channel: ua-cam.com/video/oTKV0J_coQs/v-deo.htmlsi=nwIV9XKQZ9qd_tlf ua-cam.com/video/QVmjQxyBKAg/v-deo.htmlsi=8EoewsFl__qtv0iu You can also run a free property report on our website if you want to know more specifics about your property. You can learn more about that and find links to our public marketplace here: www.landgate.com/sell-carbon-credits

It is great to hear that you have already received your free property report from us! The next steps for getting offers for a potential solar lease is to list your property for free on our marketplace. You can do that here: app.landgate.com/app/land-app/listing-process/select-parcels However, if you still have some questions feel free to fill out a form to speak with one of our experts! And you can do that here: www.landgate.com/lease-land-solar-farm

Thanks for your comment! There is not a specific term for selling a solar or wind farm cash flow payment. But many property owners who have entered in a solar or wind farm lease that are actively receiving rent payments, for the 25-50 years the solar or wind farm will be present on their land, can sell those payments at a discount in order to receive a lump sum payment upfront that will not be subject to inflation in the future. If you want to learn more check out our page: www.landgate.com/sell-solar-lease-payments

Thank you for your comment. Solar companies will lease property to utilize for solar power generation facilities and those leases typically last 25-35 years. Property will be encumbered throughout that period which is why the landowner receives compensation throughout the lease period. Each developer is different on how they maintain the property underneath the solar panels with many of them offering "agrivoltaics" (discussed at 45:20 in the video) where livestock or farming takes place underneath the solar panels. It is always best that property owners and developers discuss what they want early on in lease negotiations so both parties have a positive outcome.

We're so glad that you found this resource helpful, Shel! Feel free to reach out to our team at info@landgate.com if you have any further questions about selling your solar lease payments or if you're interested in creating a listing. Thanks again!

Thank you for your comment! Unfortunately, we are unable to consult or conduct due diligence on solar companies due to legal reasons. However, our team created this resource about conducting due diligence on solar companies and solar lease offers that will point you in the right direction: www.landgate.com/news/due-diligence-for-solar-lease-offers If you'd like to speak with someone on our team about this, feel free to reach out here and we will get back to you as soon as we can! www.landgate.com/contact

Thank you for your comment! We have had a successful year with over 160,000 acres being leased from our marketplace for renewable energy projects. Our marketplace is very active with new listings being posted every day!

Thank you @HalBarnett! We appreciate you sharing that!

Thanks for sharing @taberz1 ! 😃

Thanks for sharing! Yes, that sounds like a lot of work, but I bet it was worth it when you got to see the whole picture!! The app that Craig was sharing is available for only $25/mo on a monthly basis if you're interested: landgate.com/data-real-estate

Fantastic, thanks so much. Was thinking of investing in that - I suppose now would be a better time than ever given Flannery's shenanigans. I will drop one additional comment here with the some very interesting information that every news outlet has missed thus far; this story is unfolding within a context that may explain what we're seeing (and also explain how strange all of this is); I'm not sure I have the required knowledge necessary to understand the land use regulations, zoning legislation, etc to comprehend it all as well as you guys would, so perhaps with your experience you might be able to make more sense of it than I. Looking forward to using your service, and thanks for the video. @@landgate_resources
