CASE STUDY

balletto VINEYARDS

Balletto Vineyards, an estate winery in Sonoma County, installed almost 1000 solar panels supplying energy to the entire winery, tasting room, event center as well as several other meters serving wells and on-property homes.

"We are saving $130,000 a year that would have gone to PG&E that we can now reinvest back into the wines, back into the vineyards or back into more sustainability" - Anthony Beckman, Winemaker & Vice President - Balletto Vineyards

Testimonials

“To everyone thinking of adding solar, I was skeptical of the cost benefit for many years, but Taylor Energy took the time to explain all of the benefits to us; including cost savings. We now have three systems online and are very pleased with the installation, operation and cost savings. I highly recommend Taylor Energy for these systems.”

— Jim Pacette (Sebastopol)

“We began working with Taylor Energy at the end of 2013 to strategize about installing a solar system for our business offices. Throughout the process Taylor Energy was very professional in their presentation of the plan for our facility and implementing it to cover a large portion of our electrical consumption for our various suites. They worked diligently to get the permitting in place, and we were up and running well ahead of projected schedule. Since completing the project, they have remained in contact with us to ensure our satisfaction and have gone above and beyond for various requests that we have made of them.”

— Rose Wood (YUBA CITY)

“Having reviewed a number of proposals for solar installation, I'm very happy to have chosen Taylor Energy. They were highly professional from the first meeting, through coordinating with my roofing contractor (who they had never met, but with whom they had to work in lock-step during the installation), to the installation and follow-up. They are of the highest skills, professionalism and integrity.”
