We just completed a 30 panel mystic system to heat the process clean up water for a dairy. The system will produce 1000 gallons of 165 degree water on a daily basis. An on demand electric point of use water heater was also installed as a back up for the solar system. The system is operating well and creating energy even in the toughest time of the year – December/January radiation levels from the sun.
The payback on the system is guaranteed to be less than 2 years. The installation was completed in two weeks.
The process water is used to clean up after each milk run and to keep the process clean and sanitized. This install was assisted with grants from the USDA Rural Development and the US Treasury 1603 Grant.
