Sustainable Greenhouse Farming is the Future
Reducing CO₂ Emissions
To achieve CO₂-neutral greenhouse cultivation, it is essential to use available energy efficiently and reduce the total energy demand by at least 35%.
By lowering the overall energy requirements for both heating and cooling, we can significantly reduce CO₂ emissions.
Moving Away from Gas
Natural gas is a widely used fossil fuel for heating greenhouses due to its convenience, speed, and affordability. In Dutch greenhouse cultivation, the demand for fossil fuels still hovers around 90%.
During the transition to sustainable cultivation, it is expected that gas prices will rise, driven by factors such as CO₂ taxes and increasing energy levies. As a result, it is crucial for growers to start exploring sustainable energy sources and technologies to reduce energy demand. However, transitioning away from gas can be challenging for many growers. The Thermeleon Heat Battery offers growers additional options and flexibility to achieve this goal.
