How to define shading strategies

🌱 Optimizing greenhouse climate: a key to sustainable agriculture ! 🌞

Did you know that the type of transparent cover and shading strategy you choose can drastically affect your greenhouse’s internal climate?

Temperature, humidity, solar radiation, and PAR all have a direct impact on crop performance and energy consumption.

With Hortinergy it’s now possible to simulate and compare different equipment and strategies before the greenhouse is even built.

📊 This was recently demonstrated in a multi-span greenhouse project in Abu Dhabi, under extreme heat and solar radiation. Thanks to simulations, we were able to make smarter technical decisions and keep energy costs under control. ⚡

👉 The result ? A better balance between crop productivity and energy use with measurable cost savings and more sustainable outcomes.

📍 Curious to see how this could apply to your own project?
