Aquaculture / Fish Farm Sector

Aquaculture, often commonly referred to as fish farming is a highly energy intensive industry due to the feeding, cooling and storage processes necessary for operating.

Fish farms are actively located in remote coastal areas, with little or no grid connection available to adequately meet the power requirements for infrastructure and welfare facilities. To power these intensive activities they therefore require the constant use of diesel generators to provide sufficient electricity, which is highly damaging to the local air quality while contributing to growing emissions.

With the aquaculture industry growing at an increasing rate to satisfy fish demand and support the food security chain, it is also met with governmental/ regulatory challenges to reduce their carbon footprint and lower CO₂ emissions from operations.
