The Energy Minister Simon Watts has launched the Solar on Farms initiative at Fieldays - with plans for tools and data to be made available as well as moves to make financing these products easier.
ASB Bank is offering interest free loans up to $150,000 over 5 years.
It comes as joint venture company Farmlands Flex adds its launch of a software product that will help connect solar systems to batteries and the grid.
Farmlands Flex chief executive is Andrew Pegler and Becks Smith is founder of Solayer - a company installing solar systems on farm.
