Energy Innovations for America’s Pork Producers
Pork producers need innovations that address both environmental and energy concerns while remaining competitive in the global market. A growing number of farmers across the United States are dealing with financial difficulties from stemming from export trade issues, and now the COVID-19 pandemic. Ideal Energy works to create solutions for farming operations which slash energy costs, cut carbon footprints and help to build resiliency into the farm’s operations.
Completed 2018, the 73.44 solar installation at H&M Swine covers nearly 75% of the family pork production’s energy needs and will pay for itself in 4 years. This is a stellar example of how solar energy can is helping farming operations become more stable and profitable with predictable, low energy costs.
