Silicon Ranch’s Regenerative Energy® team designs and manages utility scale solar power plants with nature in mind.
By co-locating solar energy production and regenerative agriculture, we create valuable environmental, social, and economic outcomes that are far beyond the impacts that a solar facility alone can produce. We team up with regenerative ranchers, thought-leaders, non-profits, and communities to deliver Regenerative Energy® and measure, verify, and report outcomes.
How do we know that our innovative approach drives positive outcomes?
Because we measure our work and verify and report our results. Regenerative Energy® is science-led and data-driven. We work closely with market-leading third parties to capture outcomes and strive toward continuous improvement. We team up with regenerative ranchers, thought-leaders, non-profits, and communities that are passionate about fostering regenerative systems.
Our Land Managers and Producers
Cabriejo Ranch

Our Validators
Savory Institute
Savory Institute brings its Land to Market Ecological Outcome Verification protocol to Regenerative Energy®, through which both our land and the grass-fed meats produced on our land can be verified as ‘regenerative’.
Restore the Earth Foundation
Led by P.J. Marshall, Executive Director of Restore the Earth Foundation, and Ed Pinero, President of EcoMetrics LLC, the Restore the Earth team provides the necessary expertise to track, assess, and capture the full value of environmental, social, and economic impacts of Regenerative Energy® projects using the custom-designed Regenerative Energy® EcoMetrics methodology.
