Comment on Once a Gamble in the Desert, Electric Grid Batteries Are Everywhere

These are the studies I have read, but cattle are what exist right outside of town. We have a lot of sheep, too, but not where the panels would go. I would like to find a study about cattle, if you have one to share, that would be great!

Im seeing a lot of research being done in the cattle/panels area, although most of it appears recently and is partially stymied by the rollback of solar funds. This seems like a solid place to start.

Thank you! I work on rangelands, so having good info makes a big difference when I speak with these folks. I can’t use the sheep examples because we all know it may not be relevant.
I’ll get to reading.
