RayLen Solar Vineyard
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010
North Carolina is slowly building a very respectable wine country, located predominantly in the Yadkin valley north of Charlotte. We recently had the chance to pay an educational visit to RayLen vineyards based out of Mocksville. GT has always seen vineyards as much more than wine, energy environments if you will and RayLen is another winery backing that up, with an awesome solar install. Check out the video below for a quick look. Note: the muscadine (seeds) at the beginning is an indigenous grape to NC, which reportedly has up to 5 times as much resveratrol as other red grapes.
My facts aren’t quite right in the video. Click below to get the full spec on their setup.

Wine and Shine
Tuesday, May 5th, 2009
I saw an awesome headline today:
Going Green Reaches Economic Tipping Point at Wine and Shine 2009
Serious implications for vineyards! A few wineries in Cali are
supposedly powering their operation from the sun, courtesy of solar installation and financing company, Conergy.
