Is it cost effective to install solar panels with battery storage (HYBRID on-grid) system in a tunnel vented building with 45,000 capacity? I am just looking into investing in a poultry farm in the near future (Philippines). I would appreciate comments or suggestions.

My experience in Canada is restaurant ownership so I am learning as much as I could through YouTube.
Please keep in touch.

The power requirement during the day is by solar power without using batteries. The set up is grid tied for the night power needs. The cost of batteries and their scheduled replacements is very expensive. Depending on power costs, decisions be weighed based on possible savings.. The solar power without batteries seemed more appropriate. Savings could be realized from 30--40%.

A 50,000 population of broiler in a tunnel vent would require about 50 KVA of power per day which includes electricity for the big exhaust/ventilation fans, motors for the pads, water distribution motors and submersible pumps, hundreds of lights inside and perimeter outside the tunnel vent housing, sensors and others. The projected savings in solar power conversion is at least 30%. The set up is g ...

The purpose of a minimum ventilation system is to bring in small amounts of cold fresh air into a house and to warm it as much as possible before it moves down to floor level so as not to chill the birds and to maximize the litter drying potential of the incoming air. Traditionally, poultry producers have utilized a “negative pressure” minimum ventilation system. In a negative pressure ...
