The Industrial Solar Heater or The Solar Poultry House Heater raised the temperature inside a 550 foot poultry house 27 degrees in 5 hours. No moving parts, no fuel and zero emissions.
This unit can be used on any structure that receives direct sunlight. Need support and manufacturer with metal shop abilities. This unit in testing saved the poultry farmer 392 gallons of propane in two months.

Chicken litter is perfect for methane generation! Google "Plug Flow Digestor" and you will see mostly cattle applications, but chicken litter works better due to the lower moisture content.
I just happen to be starting a new company located in Winston-Salem, NC that does consulting & system installations for farms. Check out my web site www.SunPwrSys.com and go to the farm section for an overview some of your options. Then call!
I'd love to check out your operation and help you make some money from your valuable resource: poop!

Saw your post about setting up your chicken operation . If you go methane production . That is very well engineered , and they were doing it in India 40 years ago . CNN just ran a story about a dairy farmer in California going this route. Since chicken manure is so hot your energy production will be good. It's the % of nitrogen in the manure that makes the methane. What comes out of your digesters will compete with the rising price fertilizers .
Engineer the houses themselves. I.E. insulate etc.
With the huge pig population in the Carolinas the system you're looking at is coming to North Carolina.
I'm not expert .... But I'll sure help you out all I can.
The best thing about it ... It cuts the smell way down.

Greetings
Mrs. Grey and I are happy that you have joined this group and we hope that your involvement with this effort will be rewarding for you and your children. We have prepared a letter that encompasses the Pickens Plan so you can send it to your congressional delegation. It is easy to send you just click on the web site to your congressional delegation. You can easily find it by Goggling it.
Mrs. Grey and I had fun developing this plan and we shared this plan with Pickens' people and they sent a "Great Idea!” I just want to share with you our opportunity to make a difference. A copy of the letter is at the top of this comment
Best Wishes
