GrowSave is a knowledge exchange programme helping both farmers and growers save energy
Why is the GrowSave project in place?
The GrowSave project, funded by AHDB, has been helping horticultural growers save energy for over 10 years by facilitating access to the latest technical information on energy saving techniques and technologies to cut use and cost. As a proportion of business variable costs, energy costs can be considerable, particularly in protected cropping which is where the focus of this project lies, providing information on the proper use of screens in your glasshouse all the way through the best available options for energy production. However, this information can be applied across the horticultural sectors and beyond.
Who is involved with the GrowSave project?
The GrowSave team consists of the UK’s leading energy specialists from NFU Energy, who have extensive experience of working with growers and farmers to reduce energy costs. This means that the information is independent, unbiased and of high quality. By working with a network of industry partners, we give you unique and unrivalled access to the latest information about how the UK’s leading farmers and growers are increasing efficiencies and saving energy.
