Power Consumption in the Poultry Industry
• In the UK alone 11,550 million eggs are produced annually
• 99% of these are produced under artificial lighting conditions
• This creates on average 246m tons of CO2 a year• And accounts for 8.5 billion watts of power; the
equivalent domestic energy use of a small city• That does not include the Broiler Industry• The industry must change as mandatory energy
policies are applied
Current Lighting Options
The traditional tungsten bulb
• Inefficient – 98% heat 2% light• High heat output – high red light• Short lifespan• Huge power consumption• Will dim• Cheap• Being phased out
Current Lighting Options - contThe Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL)
• Lower power consumption, • Contains dangerous gases• Contains mercury• No dimming ability• Poor light quality• Disposal issues
• The only purpose-designed LED-basedsolution exclusively for poultry
• Successfully tested extensively with majorproducers
• Exceptional trial results• Significant benefits: reduced power
consumption and carbon emissions; improved animal welfare
• Available in 4, 8 and 100W sizes for different applications.
