Agricultural Energy Savings – Turkey Farm

Clive Thomas set out to boost his agricultural energy savings with the end goal of making his turkey farm’s power system independent over the next five years. The EnergyAce energy saving system was chosen to assist in achieving his ambition.

  • 12.52% saving
  • 25.43 tons CO2

Payback

  • 1.7 Years

Benefits

  • Removal of reactive power charges
  • Reduction of 12 amps per phase
  • Reduction of 9 kVa demand
  • Improved utility

Clive ’s seven turkey sheds rearing 90,000 birds per annum, each has its own ventilation system which is an essential part of the operation costing the business around £5,000 per month in electricity.
We installed the EnergyAce energy saving system to reduce the whole sites energy consumption by 12.52% and remove penalties in the form of reactive power charges from electricity bills.
Installation was non obtrusive during normal working hours with a short one hour shutdown for final connection without the need for changes in infrastructure.
Payback was less than two years with savings of 12.52% per annum although a reduction in maintenance costs and the protection of all electrical appliances, plant and machinery will improve the real payback considerably.
