CONTROLLED-ENVIRONMENT AGRICULTURE

Coordinate Energy, Climate and Critical Operations Across the Growing Facility

Greenhouses and controlled-environment facilities combine large electrical loads with crops, climate systems, Irrigation, research operations and seasonal production requirements. HECSY provides the metering, controls and resilient-energy strategy needed to manage those systems as one facility.

Energy Is Connected to the Crop

Lighting, ventilation, cooling, heating, irrigation, pumps and environmental controls can create large and rapidly changing loads. Energy decisions cannot be separated from crop requirements, research conditions or facility operating schedules.

HECSY develops controls around the needs of the growing environment rather than applying a generic demand-reduction strategy.

Typical Challenges

Large lighting and climate-control peaks

Seasonal and weather-dependent load changes

Critical research, storage and environmental loads

Multiple utility meters or distributed facility areas

Low power factor and electrical-capacity constraints

Solar and generator assets operating independently

Need for backup power and faster alerts

Water and energy systems that influence one another

Built From Real Agricultural Operations

HECSY and OG AGtech were developed from experience with demanding agricultural facilities and the need to coordinate energy with environmental operation. That perspective helps translate electrical data into decisions that facility and growing teams can use.

HECSY Capabilities

Facility and area-level smart metering

Lighting and climate-load visibility

Power-factor, demand and capacity analysis

Solar, battery and generator integration

Zero-export and import-floor controls

Critical-load prioritization and load shedding

Automated alerts and remote support

Energy, water and environmental-control coordination where included

Protect the Growing Operation While Reducing Cost

The objective is not simply to use less energy. It is to use the available energy assets more intelligently while protecting crop conditions, research material and critical operations.
