Industrial Automatic Control Systems and Controllers Annotation << Back Analysis of the Greenhouse Complex Main Power Grid Nodes and the Ways to Reduce Energy Consumption V.I. Domanov, E.V. Pevcheva Modern greenhouse complex power system is a complex object that contains a variety of components, each of which performs a specifi c function. Energy systems is primarily dependent on the technology and generating equipment. The technical solution reducing cost greenhouse plant production is the use of «cheap» energy. This is achieved by using its own generating plants. Greenhouse complex consumes both electricity and thermal energy. In this regard, the most effective solution is the use of cogeneration – units simultaneously generating electricity and thermal energy. This can signifi cantly reduce product manufacturing costs through effective use of the integrated generating units. Keywords: greenhouse complex; cogeneration; energy conservation; the automated control system; electric and thermal energy; lighting.
