Horticultural
You don’t need us to tell you that horticulture is an energy‑hungry sector – and in these days of soaring power bills that is something that is becoming less and less sustainable.
Heating, lighting, and irrigation are essential for healthy crops, but traditional systems can be costly and carbon‑intensive. Here at CES, our mission is to help you keep productivity high while cutting costs and emissions with practical, future‑ready solutions that work for you and your business.
Helping You Power Yourself
It’s a fact of life that greenhouses and nurseries often rely on costly and environmentally-unfriendly heating and lighting.
By switching from fossil‑fuel‑powered systems to cleaner, renewable power alternatives such as solar PV or small‑scale wind turbines, you can reduce your dependence on grid electricity without compromising plant health.
Roof‑mounted or ground‑mounted solar can power lighting, heating, and irrigation, whilst wind generation brings a steady supply of power for site‑wide use. Our systems are designed to integrate seamlessly into your horticultural operations, delivering reliable energy while lowering your carbon footprint.
Renewable Energy
Maintaining the right climate is critical for year‑round growing. Renewable energy systems such as air and ground source heat pumps (ASHP) can replace gas‑powered heating for tasks such as heating polytunnels to encourage produce growth.
If you want to reduce operational costs, cut carbon emissions and meet sustainability targets without sacrificing yield, we can help in a way which delivers solutions tailor-made to you and your business.
Electrified Energy Management
An energy management system (EMS) gives you complete control over how and when energy is used. It lets you monitor lighting, heating, and irrigation in real time, adjust settings based on actual need and minimise waste and reduce costs.
We have proven experience in bespoke programming, to help horticultural businesses bring their innovative ideas to fruition in an effective, efficient manner.
What our customers think
CES delivered exactly what we needed to strengthen our position in the HS2 tender process. The installation was completed efficiently with minimal disruption to our operations. Not only does the system support our transition to electric vehicles and construction equipment, but it also powers our site workshop effectively. The aftercare service has been excellent, with CES handling all system registration and compliance requirements professionally. Their strategic approach to meeting our sustainability goals while supporting our business growth objectives has been invaluable. Thanks to Joe and all the team.
