The profit potential of agricultural flexibility
Agricultural operations have untapped flexibility waiting to turned into new revenue streams. Energy-intensive equipment like lighting and irrigation can be optimised to minimise costs and generate major profits through flexibility.
Sympower helps you pinpoint the best times to activate, select ideal markets, and streamline your agriculture processes, ensuring maximum earnings and minimal disruptions.
Sympower puts your energy to work
We connect
We work with you to identify the most flexible equipment in your facility and connect it to our system.
We adjust
We monetise your equipment on balancing markets, either decreasing or increasing consumption on pre-agreed times.
You earn
Every time you contribute your energy, you earn money based on the capacity of energy you provide, or for the time your equipment is activated.
Flexibility in the agricultural industry
-
BESS can be charged and discharged to meet grid demands, while other equipment stays operational. It can also handle the site’s peaks of energy usage.
-
While HVAC systems optimise temperature, they can also be adjusted to decrease or increase energy usage when needed to.
-
The speed in which e-boilers can respond to control signals and the ability to adjust their power usage, makes them highly flexible.
-
Lighting systems can be dimmed or turned off in non-essential areas during peak grid demand. They can also be turned on for short periods to balance the grid.
-
Adjusting pump speed can reduce or increase energy consumption to balance the grid, without affecting production.
-
During high demand, CHP units can increase electricity generation while reducing heat output, or vice versa.
