Consultation & Support Services in Greenhouse Design with Hortinergy
Hortinergy Training offers practical consultation and ongoing support for growers, organizations, and projects working in challenging climate conditions. Our consulting services focus on greenhouse systems, energy efficiency, and climate-responsive growing strategies that are grounded in real-world experience.
We support projects operating in hot and dry climates, hot and cold regions, and environments with strong seasonal or climatic variability. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions, reduce risk, and design systems that perform reliably under your specific conditions.
What we Offer
Our consultation services are designed to support projects at different stages of development, from early planning to troubleshooting and long-term optimization.
We work with:
- Individual growers and farmers
- Commercial greenhouse operations
- Community and urban agriculture projects
- Training programs
Our approach emphasizes practical, context-specific guidance rather than generic solutions.
Climate-Focused Consulting in Greenhouse Design
Hot and Dry Climate Consulting
Hot and Wet Climate in Greenhouse Consulting
Temperature Climate Consulting
Hot and arid environments pose challenges related to cooling, solar protection, and heat stress. We help clients design and refine systems that prioritize efficiency, resilience, and long-term productivity.
Support areas microclimate design. Recommendations are adapted to local resources, scale, and operational realities.
Hot and humid climates require careful control of humidity, ventilation, and cooling to maintain crop health and productivity. We support greenhouse design and optimisation to reduce disease pressure, improve airflow, and manage heat and moisture efficiently.
Consulting includes ventilation strategies, shading and cooling systems, humidity control, and material selection adapted to tropical and subtropical conditions. Recommendations are tailored to local climate, resources, and project scale to ensure efficient and resilient greenhouse operations.
Regions with both high heat and low temperatures require systems that can adapt across seasons. We provide guidance on managing temperature variability while maintaining productivity and energy efficiency.
Consultation topics include seasonal planning, frost and heat mitigation strategies, infrastructure considerations, soil protection across seasons, and approaches to reduce energy demand while maintaining stable growing conditions.
Cold Climate Consulting in Greenhouse Design
Cold and northern climates present major challenges related to heating demand, insulation, light availability, and energy costs. We support clients in designing greenhouses that maintain stable growing conditions while minimising energy consumption and operational risks.
Consulting focuses on high-performance insulation strategies, thermal storage, efficient heating systems, and climate control optimisation for extreme winter conditions. Guidance also includes snow and structural considerations, energy integration (biomass, geothermal, waste heat), and solutions to maximise light and productivity during low-radiation periods.
Recommendations are adapted to local energy resources, crop requirements, and project scale to ensure reliable, efficient, and economically viable greenhouse operation in cold environments.
Our Greenhouse Design Consulting Approach
Each consultation is tailored to the specific goals, constraints, and conditions of the project.
Our process typically includes understanding your objectives, reviewing site and climate factors, identifying key challenges, and delivering clear, actionable recommendations. Where needed, we also provide follow-up support to assist with implementation and adjustment.
Our Consultation Packs
Hortinergy offers three consultation levels—Basic, Premium, and Extended—designed to provide the appropriate depth of expert support for greenhouse systems and energy-efficiency planning. Each option delivers focused, practical guidance based on your specific challenges and climate conditions.
All prices exclude taxes.
This one-hour session is ideal for focused questions and targeted expert input. We review a specific greenhouse, climate, or energy-related challenge and provide clear recommendations that can be implemented immediately.
This option is well suited for troubleshooting, validating ideas, or gaining clarity before making a decision.
This two-hour session allows for deeper analysis and strategic guidance. We take time to understand your greenhouse setup, energy use, climate conditions, and goals.
You receive tailored advice, optimization strategies, and defined next steps to improve system performance and energy efficiency.
This five-hour session is designed for complex projects and long-term planning. It allows for in-depth system evaluation, scenario discussion, and detailed recommendations.
We work closely with you to analyze existing systems, explore improvement options, and support informed decision-making across multiple aspects of your project.
Who This Service Is For
These consultation services are suited for individuals and organizations that require climate-adapted solutions, practical guidance, and experienced input without long-term consultancy commitments.
If you are working in demanding conditions and need clear, realistic support, this service is designed to help you move forward with confidence.
How to Get Started
Consultations are available by online appointment. Once booked, you will be asked to share basic information about your project and objectives to ensure the session is focused and productive.
Each consultation is structured to respect your time and deliver usable outcomes.
