Renewable Technologies for Agriculture

Agricultural buildings, with their large roof areas, are ideal locations for installing solar PV and solar thermal systems. These systems are easily installed, require minimal ongoing maintenance, and often do not need planning permission.

For agricultural operations with high energy requirements, such as refrigeration units, poultry housing, milking parlours, and grain storage, aligning energy usage with daytime solar energy generation maximises energy efficiency. This approach reduces the additional cost of importing energy from the grid.

Battery Storage Solutions

Battery storage systems offer new opportunities for farmers to store excess energy. This stored energy can be used as needed or sold back to the grid when tariff rates are highest. Many farmers now operate an energy business as a distinct, costed enterprise within their diversified farming operations.

Environmental Responsibility

Farmers, as custodians of our beautiful countryside, are increasingly motivated to reduce carbon emissions and secure the future of our planet. Renewable energy solutions align with these goals by providing sustainable and environmentally friendly energy options.

"I had a @myenergi Zappi Smart charger installed for my electric car today by @smartchargehereford. Brilliant service, they’d been and gone within 2 hours and there was no mess or evidence they’d even been - apart from the charger!"
