Supplemental lighting is a major cost component for controlled environment agriculture facilities. While lamp efficiency (efficacy) is an important factor, other key factors include crop needs (intensity and duration), cropping strategy (time of year and harvesting schedule), availability of sunlight (location and structural design), heating and cooling requirements (location and energy costs), and electric rate schedules (time of day and demand charges).
During this webinar, Dr. Neil Mattson from Cornell University and Dr. A.J. Both from Rutgers University will provide updates on research findings and present calculation tools that can be used to assess the operational costs for and benefits from supplemental lighting systems.
