“Pastures and Panels” tells the story of farmers and ranchers revitalizing family farms by grazing sheep on solar energy sites, creating a resilient model that produces food, fiber and energy for the nation — all on the same land. The film is now streaming on YouTube.

EVA encapsulant arrives at the panel factory as rolls of clear, flexible film, typically 0. The film contains crosslinking agents, UV stabilizers, and antioxidants mixed into the base ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (typically 28-33% vinyl acetate content).

Instead of using thick layers of crystalline silicon, thin-film solar cells are made by depositing one or more thin layers of photovoltaic material onto a substrate. These layers are incredibly thin – often just a few micrometers thick, which is about 100 times thinner than.

These advanced coatings are engineered not only to minimize glare but also to increase the panel's energy output, making them a critical feature for both performance and aesthetics. Any time light strikes a surface like glass, a portion of that light bounces off.
