California produces nearly half of all U.S. vegetables and more than three-quarters of U.S. fruits and nuts, according to the CDFA. Today, moving that food from farms and packing facilities to distribution centers, ports, and markets requires a significant transportation network. One that runs predominantly on diesel. Read more
When you’re developing a solar project, especially at the commercial or utility scale, you’re betting big on your foundations. If those foundations fail, the consequences ripple through your entire project, from redesigns and delays to lost incentives and structural risk. And no matter how well-designed your system is, if the piles don’t hold, the whole thing falls apart. That’s where pile testing with Sunstall comes in.
We specialize in pile tests because we’ve seen what happens when you skip them. Read more

What a 7 MW solar project revealed about terrain risk—and how to eliminate it before construction begins.
In mid-October, our team completed one of the most unique and inspiring projects in our portfolio to date. Set against the dramatic mountain backdrop of Grand Junction, Colorado, this system marks a major milestone for agrivoltaics in the U.S. by standing as the largest viticulture-focused agrivoltaic system (or “viti-voltaic”) in the country.

Back in 2023, University of California (UC) Davis had a small set of Sunzaun vertical bifacial racking installed – three rows of three modules – to support early agrivoltaics research. Sunstall donated so the university could begin exploring how vertical solar might work alongside crops in California farmland.
Two years later, and after immense collaboration, the research site looks quite different.
