Indoor Growing Facilities
In modern indoor growing, innovation is not unlike the requirements of a data center. Investors in industrial cultivation will be concerned about uptime guarantees and whether the equipment investment is properly protected. The cost of backup or long term continuous power can be mitigated by properly sizing load and taking advantage of long term leasing, trade ins or buy backs, and the availability of high quality pre-owned power equipment.
For continuous power in grow operations, natural gas or propane generators are often the preferred choice, especially in off-grid locations or to provide supplemental power to combat expensive utility rates. Natural gas driven gensets have the best fuel to cost efficiencies, and after initial purchase have the lowest operating costs when the grow operation requires high hours from the generator. The emissions are much lower and there is potentially no transportation cost for fuel with various types of gaseous fuels.
