Landowners

Founded in 2018, Oriden is a renewable energy developer specializing in solar energy and battery energy storage projects across the United States. As a group company of Mitsubishi Power Americas, Oriden partners with landowners and communities to deliver cost-effective, carbon-free energy solutions that support energy independence and sustainability.

Partnering with Oriden offers landowners a long-term, stable income from solar energy projects. Our approach focuses on:

• Transparent communication throughout the development process 

• Responsible land stewardship that protects and enhances your land 

• Community engagement, ensuring local benefits from clean energy projects 

Contact Oriden today to explore solar lease opportunities. 

• Guaranteed income: Landowners receive annual payments during development and escalating lease payments once the project is operational. 

• Additional revenue stream: Lease payments provide financial stability, reducing dependence on farming, timbering, or other variable-income sources. 

• No land restrictions during development: Continue using your land while securing future financial gains.

• Preserve family land by preventing development for commercial or residential use. 

• Improve soil health as farmland gets a rest period during solar operations. 

• Enhance energy independence by contributing to a clean, resilient energy grid. 

• Millions in tax revenue support schools, emergency services, and infrastructure. 

• Lower tax burdens for local residents and small businesses. 

• Job creation through local construction, maintenance, and supply chains. 

• Community investment via sponsorships and local partnerships. 

Yes. Modern solar panels are non-toxic and environmentally safe. 

• Encapsulated design: Prevents exposure to hazardous materials. 

• Industry safety standards: Tested by UL, NEC, IEC, and ISO. 

• Low electromagnetic fields (EMF): Similar to everyday household appliances. 

No. Solar panels absorb sunlight, not reflect it. Studies by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) confirm that solar panels produce less glare than windows or water⁶. Many are also coated with anti-reflective materials to minimize glare further.

Absolutely. Solar farms are built to meet rigorous safety standards: 

• Fenced perimeters & warning signage prevent public access. 

• National safety codes ensure safe installation and operation. 

• Local inspections & first responder training enhance safety measures. 

Only minimal noise during daytime operation and none at night. During construction, Oriden follows local noise regulations and implements mitigation strategies to reduce any impact. 

Studies indicate that property values increase near solar farms. Research by Loyola University Chicago (2024) found that utility-scale solar projects boost nearby property values by 0.5–2%. 

No. Solar farms coexist with agriculture and may even benefit farmland: 

• Resting the soil during operations improves long-term soil health. 

• Agrivoltaics & solar grazing allow dual land use for farming and renewable energy. 

• Pollinator habitats promote local biodiversity. 

Oriden contracts experienced solar maintenance providers to ensure 24/7 system monitoring, security, and upkeep. 

We plant low-maintenance, native vegetation to: 

• Prevent erosion and protect soil quality. 

• Support local wildlife and pollinator species. 

• Enhance the landscape while reducing maintenance costs. 

Only when necessary, and always in compliance with environmental safety standards. Oriden prioritizes eco-friendly vegetation management techniques. 

Oriden follows a detailed decommissioning plan, restoring land to its original condition or an agreed-upon alternative use. 

• Financial security bond ensures landowners incur no removal costs. 

• Recycling & responsible disposal of solar panels per EPA guidelines. 

Panels are either reused, refurbished, or responsibly recycled. Disposal follows EPA regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to ensure environmental safety.
