Witman Farm

The Witman Farm, an Avocado Farm in Escondido has an installation designed by Sullivan Solar Power to power the agricultural meter serving the well pumps. This is a ground-mounted installation located at the base of the hill at this privately owned farm. In addition to the solar installation, Sullivan installed a brand new service panel for the existing electrical equipment and the new solar connection.

On average, each year a solar energy system this size will:
