Farms, undisturbed by large buildings and other objects that can disturb wind streams, are often ideal locations for wind turbines, currently the most cost effective means of renewable energy production. Renpower work with farmers who need energy production from both the wind and the sun at farm locations not easily supplied by mains electricity.

Here are a few ideas of the type of projects where renewable energy technology has helped on farm:

• Green Electricity Production
  Generating green electricity that can be used in the home for lighting and appliances and serve to reduce your carbon footprint. Excess energy can be sold back to the grid in order to profit from over-production.
  
  
• Battery Charging
  Charging 12V batteries is a common occurrence on farm. Using Solar PV or Wind Turbine generators for charging can substantially reduce electricity costs whilst being kind to the environment.
  
  
• Trough Heating
  The winter brings issues with animal care and trough heaters can often save farmers valuable time during feeding. Low powered wind turbines are an excellent option for these purposes.
  
  

If these projects interest you, or you have another use in mind; Renpower can help! We can support you from initial consultation through to installation and commissioning. Alternatively, given that farmers often have the skills and equipment necessary for installing small turbines, we can provide packaged off-the-shelf solutions you can install yourselves.
