The Challenge
Swedish company Ljusgårda had a vision of delivering locally grown vegetables in a sustainable, eco-friendly and cost-effective way, all year round. Having renovated an old factory to grow lettuce vertically in tubes illuminated by LED lights, Ljusgårda required space saving and efficient energy distribution for optimum levels of lighting, moisture and temperature, to expand and fully automate their indoor cultivation.
To achieve this, the company needed a sustainable switchgear solution that would not jeopardise its commitment to sustainable food production.
The Objectives A switchgear solution was needed that:
- Provided a space saving, safe and reliable electrification infrastructure
- Reduced environmental impact and was compliant with upcoming F-gas regulations on the use of SF₆
- Supported its rapid expansion and production targets
