Agriculture Energy Efficiency
Energy is essential for agriculture. Farms need fuel and electricity for equipment, lighting, storage, and processing. Fluctuating prices hurt farmers' profits. Prioritizing energy efficiency cuts costs, reduces vulnerability, and boosts your business's value.
How Can Farms Save Energy?
KEEN will help you find and apply for local, state and national energy rebate programs to drastically reduce the upfront costs of your energy efficiency upgrades such as:
Improved insulation – Inspect, maintain and enhance your facility by addressing air leaks and poor insulation. From insulating hot or cold pipes and equipment to evaluating doors and windows, farms can reduce energy expenses with updated insulation.
Improved HVAC – Our commercial HVAC team can install, maintain and upgrade your HVAC system. Improve your heating and cooling in every building to reduce costs and better regulated controlled environments such as grain drying facilities or on-site cold storage.
Automation and other solutions – From changing in on-site transportation, electrified equipment options and other innovative options.
The American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE) conducted an encouraging study. They found the agricultural sector can save more than $1 billion per year by incorporating energy efficiency practices, equipment and on-site renewable energy.
